My favorite movie this year is "Blindside" with Sandra Bullock. I loved this movie because Sandra's character embodies my own heart and beliefs. It didn't hurt that Tim McGraw, who is handsome, rugged and sexy, played the supportive husband. It is about an affluent woman and her family who help a runaway teenage boy with no place to go. Within this whole process he becomes part of their family. The boy ends up having a special talent for football which Bullock's character fosters. Although there is suspicion of ulterior motives and exploitation on the part of Bullock's character with this boy, it ends up being a heart warming story. I loved this movie! I saw this movie on my television through pay-per-view in HD.

My all time favorite movie would be "Life is Beautiful." A truly heartwarming story about a Jewish man who falls in love and pursues a beautiful woman, his principessa. The beginning of the story is whimsical and romantic as they fall in love, get married and have a son. It takes place towards the end of World War II and the Germans come and take Guido and his son away. His wife, not being Jewish chooses to go with them. The Germans separate Guido and his son from his principessa at the camp. Guido protects his son by treating everything as a joke. He tells them they have entered a contest and that he must play along so they can win the big prize. This ultimately saves his son, but gets him killed. The son thinks he has won the game when an American tank shows up and he is reunited with his mom. I loved this movie because it tells a story of love, family, tragedy and heartache and shows us as a society that hatred and adversity cannot destroy our spirit, our love. I saw this movie on my televison through pay-per-view in HD.
