Must see movie!

Aaron and I don't get to see many movies these days; too hard to mess with a babysitter, extra cost, etc. So when we do see a movie we try to make it a good one. The one we saw today is FANTASTIC, and I recommend it to anyone. Slumdog Millionaire. It's the perfect mix of harsh reality and fantasy/feel good happy ever after. The whole movie is real enough that it grips you and there are many heartwrenching parts to the story that are difficult and uncomfortable to watch. But you leave the theater happy and hopeful about life and moved by what the human spirit can endure. It's also fascinating to get a glimpse of a different part of the world and culture that we know very little about. Bottom line, go see the movie, I don't think you'll be disappointed!
