Wow......Slumdog Millionaire


"Wow"

That's all I could say to my daughter at the movie theater when Slumdog ended.

We both looked at each other and said "incredible" in unison.

A very dark, disturbing, tense....love story.....involving kismet....set in India.

Fate.

Barriers.

Finding someone .....having your heart find someone.....as if an invisible string led you right to him or her.

A love story encased in the cruel barebone poverty of the slums and the surprising energy and ingenuity which springs from that harsh reality.

Wow.

Touching ....touching ....


Happy 4th everyone!

It's raining here....so a perfect day......to see a movie....my brain is too frazzled from my new job to even try and digest anything of substance.... so I asked the Big Guy (hub) to take me to see Wall-e.

Wow.

The story line is so strong....you forget you're watching an animated film.....and you realize after you leave....that the robots barely said more than 4 words.

Amazing.

Everything carried visually by gesture and facial features. Although there were lots of kids at the show.....in all honesty I wondered if the non-verbal language was too advanced for the wee one's....but it hits the bull's eyes for adults.

Cute. Touching....and it does what ever good love story is supposed to do.....tug at your heart ....and make it soft again.

Go Wall-e!!!





LOVE THIS SONG off the soundtrack......just downloaded it to the ipod...enjoy.
