I cannot believe I am lucky enough...

Oh, to get to see this movie! I cannot say that I have the most expertise on challenging movie styles and all of that garbage but I adore this movie. I think that the length of the movie might have been a turnoff, but America needs to extend it's attention span for this one. The one thing that I found very compelling and accurate to an extent is the impression of the depression. My grandmother and her 8 bothers and sisters went through it and I have heard many stories about how they suffered. This movie made it seem so real.
I almost did not give this movie a try. I am not a huge fan of Russell Crowe or Renee Zellweger, so if you feel the same way give this movie a shot. I cannot begin to explain how great they are in this.
