Tim and I watched the movie Changeling last night. First of all, Angelina Jolie playing the roll of Christine Collins was phenomenal!!! The movie itself was very heavy. After I watched it, it took me the rest of the night to recover, and I woke up around 5 am this morning, dreaming about the movie.
Personally, it touched me deeply. I wouldn't recommend this movie if you just want to enjoy an evening with laughter and fun with friends, but its definitely a great movie to see when you're ready for something GOOD!

Defiance
I just watched the movie Defiance on Neflix with Tim tonight. It was very good. I am not a movie critic or anything, but I just want to say that I was really touched by the story.
It's about three Jewish brothers that lived during World War II in Poland, and how they led a group of nearly 2000 Jewish to survive in the forests as free people. The experiences they went through were amazing but at the same time horrific. It reminded me of that ugly part of world history once again, and it made me appreciate the time of peace so much more.
We watched the extras afterward, which has the interviews with the main characters' descendants in US; their testimonies had made the movie more truthful and raw.
I would recommend this movie to everyone.
