leaving normal...
Leaving Normal is reminiscent of those Hallmark movies my mom used to make me watch on Sunday evenings. Though sometimes cute, it was way too cheesy for me. The idea could've been portrayed in a more effective way, with characters who were less neurotic and more accessible. It surprised me that this was the last movie of the semester, it seemed like a strange fit.
My favorite movie from this semester was probably The Grace Lee Project. It kept my interest for the whole film, and Grace Lee's mission seemed so heartfelt. Her presentation of the topic was excellent.
