This Blog Has Moved!

I moved my blog on New Years Day, 2010. If you haven't come to see my new blog, head on over HERE now. This blog will be available for archive reading but I won't be posting here anymore. I hope you'll join me at my new bloggy home!

p.s. I am slowly but surely moving all the blogs I follow over to the new blog, so if I haven't come to visit you for a while, my advice is to leave a comment on my new blog, so I don't miss you in the shuffle!

About Me

My photo
I am a bereaved mother and wife. I began this blog to help me look for the "good things" in life after my daughter, "Babybear", died in July 2005. Three years later, her daddy, my husband, "Bear", died in November 2008. (You'll find a link to their stories on my blog) And now, as difficult as it is, I continue to look for the good things in my life as I learn my new normal with my pup, "Furrybear", at my side. And the angels on my shoulder...

Movie Review: Evening

Evening - starring Claire Danes, Toni Collette, Vanessa Redgrave

As she lays dying, Ann recalls a life changing event many years ago.

While she drifts in and out of consciousness, her daughters try to make sense of the tidbits of information she mumbles. The movie goes back and forth between current time and an evening many years ago.

While this was not a bad movie, I can't say I really enjoyed it that much. It started off okay but even the life changing event did not play a very big role in the movie. The movie continued on as if something else was to happen, but nothing ever did. There were no explanations as to what really transpired after, yet given the amount of time left in the movie, you would think there would have been more to it.

I would not necessarily recommend this movie. It was OK. Not great. Not horrible. Just...ok.

Huh... never heard of this oen before. Sorry it wasn't better for you... I hate when you spend time watching a movie and it's not all that great.
