must-see movie


Have you seen this movie? I am rarely one to see movies in the real theater and instead usually wait until they hit the dollar theater or video store, so I didn't see this movie until recently. It really was so touching. I cried through a lot of it. Dakota Fanning does such a fabulous job. It's not just a girly movie - I think guys might like it too. (Admittedly, I haven't read the book, so I don't have that to compare it to, but on its own it was excellent.) Go see it at your local dollar theater or rent it when it hits the video stores. You'll be glad that you did.

Oh, Ash. You absolutely MUST read the book. It's truly beautiful. Seriously. I'll send you my copy if you want.

I happened to almost 'fall' into a ticket for this show at the Toronto Film Festival in Sept 08. My mom and I thought we try to see if tickets were available and two people walked up to us and sold their seats.

We ran and got in... just in time to see the entire cast lined up on the stage in front of us before the show! So fabulous!!!

Great movie - love Dakota!
