Ask anyone if I am a cry baby and they will tell you yes. There are only a few things in life that make me cry, but lately it has been movies. But I will let you in on a secret, the harder I cry (from sadness or laughing) the better it is to me :)
In the last month the movies have been Role Models, Twilight, Changling, Boy in the Stripped Pajamas, Marley and me, and The Mist. Now I will not ruin the movies for anyone, but I will tell you, all of them I loved. BUT be prepared to wipe those tears, or stare at your TV in shock. I am not a fan of horror movies, even more since I had my son, but nothing moves me more than a good laugh or good cry.
Now I don’t know how many of you will watch Boy in the Stripped Pajama’s, but let me tell you that it’s sort of a story about childhood innocence. Two little boys one the son of a Nazi soldier and another in a concentration camp… yet neither seem to notice the “fence” between the two of them that should keep them from being friends. I recommend this movie to everyone.
As for the others, I am sure most of you have seen Twilight by now… LOVED IT. I didn’t think I would, esp. since I thought it was just a vampire movie. No sillies, it’s a LOVE STORY! The kind of Love story one would only fantasize about. (So good, I am reading the books now J ). Role Models, is hilarious, cant really say anymore about it or it might ruin the movie. Changling, is about a mother whose son goes missing and its about her search to find “HER” son. Marley and me, again, I am sure you all know all about it, but if you grew up with a dog as a child or as an adult and no longer have that dog… then you know the feeling. This movie touched me since I once had a “bad dog” that grew in her old age to be a “great dog”. Now The Mist, I have a few words for this movie… disturbing, heart wrenching, unexpected.
Now curl up and watch a good movie… but not during the day…. Its way to beautiful outside to be inside watching movies!!!
