Charming artistry, film-making with creative nuggets throughout

Rating: 10/10 (11 March 2005)

This movie was an unplanned adventure. I and my 13 daughter and 16 year old son were charmed by the clever humor dispersed throughout the film. The music was current, and moving and framed the scenes with the emotions of the moment.
I admit I wish the hotel peep-hole scene had been edited a bit more so that I'd have felt more comfort with my 13 year old watching it; but the end result of the whole picture has been a positive influence on both of my children, and even on the way they relate in our family. It reminds us of the value in being good to one another.
For us, this film is a classic... the acting was charming, and the script and direction was innovative, fresh and engaging.
I give it a great recommendation for teens to adults.
