This movie made me cry! It was funny, sad, gives you hope, teaches you lessons. Fantastic for kids and adults. Even better for Spanish teachers. There are many Spanish words used and culturally speaking it teaches you about Mexico's famous Dia de los muertos.
  
I finished "The Help" and it was a very good audio book. I laughed and cried and got mad. I was so sad it was over. I wish there was a sequel. If you haven't listened to this book add it to your list.

"These are my favorites. Donald and Charlie Kaufman. Both played by Nicholas Cage to perfection. I could go for days on this one. But the journey from Donald’s insufferable buffoonery to where they end up is like nothing I’ve ever seen. Funny, sad, beautiful stuff."

Hmm...I'm glad we finally got the bottom of Kisten's murder and that Rachel finaly remembered what had happened that night. It was kinda sad to read, and what is going on with Pierce? Surely not, Rach?

Anyway, I'm off to start book 8

2016 | Drama, History, War

"The last movie she saw that made her cry was Hacksaw Ridge, a pretty emotional movie about a soldier in World War II. She revealed that she feels the most creative when she is sad, which explains why she might gravitate toward "depressing things.""

Book Favorite

"A wonderful story about growing up with a severely limited, yet fascinating and eccentric family. It's very funny and sad and most of the scenes are unforgettable. Some of them are so hard to believe—but they're real—and that makes the story even richer."

I love this film. To see two normal women completely go full circle and end up as outlaws on the run is sad yet exhilarating. The ending is unexpected. Geena Davies and Susan Sarandon were brilliantly cast, their relationship in the film is believeable.

I really liked this show & hated that it went off the air and didn't last longer than it did. It definitely delivered on the suspense factor and the plot twists. It kept you guessing. Sad it is no longer on and it's definitely worth the watch.

Totally agree, this was an amazing series, full of twists and surprises. Great to see Kevin Bacon in a TV series too.
