A movie that stays with you

Rating: 9/10 (23 March 2017)

There are movies that are out of mind before you leave the theater, and then there are movies like Lion that will stay with you for a long time to come. I loved how they integrated Saroo's memories and fantasies about his family into his life as he was growing up. It really made you feel his hope and his hopelessness. Dev Patel is great at portraying sympathetic characters and this one will tug at the heartstrings.
