Let's go to the movies

Movie going isn't always a priority for us. When we have a little downtime, it's usually spent outdoors or with family and friends. However, the other night we spontaneously decided to check out a flick. Rachel Getting Married.

If you decide to see this movie, let me start by saying the acting is intense. I was easily drawn into Anne Hathaway's character's tormented soul and quickly became engaged with not only her character, but the entire cast. I do forewarn you - this is not the feel good movie of the year. You will probably walk out of the theater silent, consumed by the thoughts spinning through your mind, whilst your emotions begin to process. On a joyful note, there are wonderful scenes during the wedding ceremony and reception that warm the heart. Lots of great music and dancing. It's pretty incredible to see how diverse the families joining in marriage are.

In summary, the movie is intense but definietely worth seeing.
