Deeply moved...as a woman...

Rating: 10/10 (9 January 2006)

I can't say I have ever been affected by a movie quite like this...it is indescribable...profound, inspiring, moving beyond belief. So authentic, quiet and still, subtle, nothing gratuitous, just simple, beautiful and tender. I will see this again. I will talk about this film, I will share my surprise and gratitude for a film like this. Especially in this time we live, where there is so much understanding and acceptance yet so much hatred, bigotry and prejudice. I am so grateful to these actors, the writers, the director and producers for having the courage to bring this film to the masses and not to shy away from the subject matter, there is no cheating or shortcuts found in this film that could alter a generation's understanding of love and what it means to cherish. Thank you. See this film. Thank god, somehow, this film made it to Utah. A state that needs a lot of reformation and liberalization. Thank god.
