Saw this yesterday with my dad. He's a great one for picking up little known movies from the library...that often prove to be busts. So I was leary. But this was excellent. The ending was sad, not where I thought it was going at all, but beautifully told.

About a man and his princess...and their little boy, about being thankful for everything, making the best of whatever life throws at you, loving those who persecute you. Had to recommend.

Fiddler on the Roof

When I saw this movie for the first time a few summers ago both my brother, my viewing partner, and I thought it was new. Couldn't figure out how I hadn't seen any reviews of it. Recently did a theater version, so it's a tale dear to my heart.

It's a timeless family story. A musical but well-timed. Classic!

BBC - Little Dorrit

First to recommend

Description

I'm all about Masterpiece Theater. Their adaptations of the classics usually blow the Hollywood ones out of the water. This, though I'm not familiar w. the book, is no exception.

It's a sprawling Dickens tale. They say it's a rags to riches story. It has a touch mystery and suspense as well. And romance of course. I'm a old-time drama freak.

"Sense and Sensibility" (2008)

Description

I. Love. This. Movie. It's sooo much better than the one with Hugh Grant. I'm sure there are things unlike the movie, but I can let that go because everything from the settings to the costumes are just majestic. Plus, it's Austen...hard to go wrong.
