Courageous

Rating: 10/10 (25 December 2006)

This story is inspirational. It will be viewed once a year--probably in December around Christmas. The first viewing was Christmas 2005. The indomitable spirit and natural courage of this young protagonist settled inside my emotions and spirit. It was like one of those rare, really great night dreams that one infrequently has. The music supports this unique and beautiful story. Christmas 2006 has been fulfilled with a second viewing experience. This movie might just promote peace on earth. I borrowed the movie both years from the public library. Next year, I may buy my own copy. Mr. Steven Spielberg does amazing work! Schendler's List, Into the West, and now Empire of the Sun are movies that are worth repeat watchings and use of valuable living time.
