Bella

Finley and I stayed up late watching a movie. Often when that happens, I regret the choice when the movie is over, and I look at the time. But not this time.
We watched Bella, a beautiful movie based on a true story. It was more like a good book than a lot of the movies we see, there was symbolism, foreshadowing and character development. And like all my favorite movies, I had to question things about myself and wrestle with God. I don't want to go into detail and give the movie away, but Finley and I both recommend it.

Yes, we watched it as well and really loved it. I hope we can buy it someday! It also gives a different view on Latinamericans in the US and not just the typical, all Hispanics are illegal, picking crops, etc. I HIGHLY recommend this one!! It's great to watch a second time and discover important details that one may have missed the first time.
