Surprising entertaining and touching.

Rating: 8/10 (15 March 2015)

Both my husband and I were pleasantly surprised by this movie. I'm afraid that when I see the word "Disney" I immediately think of something that will appeal more to my grandchildren. This movie definitely has adult themes. The acting was incredible---the chemistry between Hanks and Thompson so interesting. Two strong-willed characters who gradually shed their tough shells and became friends and colleagues. The supporting cast was also wonderful---everyone from the actors in the flashbacks to the studio collaborators in Los Angeles lent a great credibility to the film. And yes, I STILL cry every single time I hear "Feed the Birds".
