so on a whim, everyone decided that we should see the movie "Whale Rider" - I, being completely out of the loop, have never even heard of the movie...
To my surprise, I quite enjoyed the film. the relationship between the girl and her family, especailly regarding her grandfather, was very touching - not to mention that she was super-cute (which was also probably directly proportional to her accent - I love cool accents)
Another proof to why this movie was deeply emotional was the fact that Lorie cried through practically the whole thing... Yes, it's true that she will cry at almost any movie that spits out the slightest reason for crying - but only for a moment... After watching "Whale Rider", she looked like she had been crying for about a week... puffy eyes, red cheeks and all folks... the whole gamut... (I have a soft spot to whenever my fiancee cries - but don't tell her, because she'll probably use it against me...)
as a note to me...
etiquette and manners: rude versus polite...
in any case... I would highly recommend seeing whale rider... (unless you are one of those snobby holier-than-thou film critic types - if you are... then I recommend getting life and make something better since you fell you have to diss everything)
(bitter much ny?)
