Leaving normal

"Leaving Normal' was one of the very few movies that actually showed the reality of life. As a little girl, Marianne always thought positively; when her parents disagreed, she would always tell her older sister that everything will be alright. What Marianne did not know as a child was that life is very tough and can be umfair at times. What i really loved about this movie was the positive attitude of Marianne. No matter how lost or down she felt, she always was optimistic, still believing that life - which gave her nothing but sorrows- will one day bring her something good! And at the end, her positive attitude finally paid off when she met the man who will her right and finally had a sense of belonging in Alaska with pal Darly.
My favorite movie was "Set it off". The movie itself was both exciting and emotional! I loved the sisterhood and how fearless all black women became. They were there for each other and were ready to risk everything to have better lives. The moral is that life`s tough but there are other ways to get around obstacles than being a criminal.
