Leaving Normal and Boys on the Side

I really enjoyed the film, Leaving Normal. At the beginning of the film, I wasn't so sure. It started out slowly and a bit boring, but towards the end I really had a sense of the characters and how they were feeling and what was best for them. I would consider this movie one of the top five of the semester but my ultimate favorite would have to be Boys on the Side. Any film that can move me to tears is a good film in my book. I loved the different characters in the film and how they all had different goals in their lives but they all took the same road to reach their individual goals. I also liked the emphasis on female friendships in the film, which seems to be a recurring theme throughout female road films. There wasn't a film I didn't enjoy this semester. Thanks.
