Commentary
OMG.. That was painful.. I loved watching this film, but I don't know that I could watch it again.. However, I can see why this made the list. Everyone should see this once before they die. It definitely raises the awareness of an issue that unfortunately is still a problem today. I just keep trying to pretend it ended differently.. that they had ran off to Mexico and lived happily for the rest of their lives... :( I'm just going to leave it at that as right now I'm too upset to say much else. 


Write to you soon,


Kendra
