MIRACLES FROM HEAVEN(2015):A tearjerker that will give you(well, not all) hope and strengthen your faith

Jennifer Garner says “Miracles from Heaven” led her back to church


 Ben Affleck & Jennifer Garner Call Off Divorce: Attending The Oscars Together?

It took me a while before finally writing this blog entry.  I couldn't start.  Yes, some parts may have been fictionalized for cinematic purposes, but the story is real as real can be.  This movie, based on true events, proves that truth is really stranger than fiction.  Doctors and other people have testified that this story is real and it's not because some people are just trying to be famous.  Anna did suffer and experience different kinds of miracles, including the kindness of other people, strangers at that.

 After watching this film I couldn't stop crying.  Mostly, because of tears of joy, but it was also because I could empathize and sympathize with the plight of the Beam family.

 No matter how strong one's faith is, there will be times when he or she could question that faith.  There may be a handful of people who never question their faith, but the fact is, most of us do.

 Listen to Christy's speech in Church after the miracle.  It was beautiful.  I don't know if it's verbatim, but you know what, she is right.  There are miracles everyday and sometimes we don't even notice it.

 Your heart would be wrenched for sure, but you will also feel good and probably, your faith would be stronger.  I say probably just because...  :-) 
The Real BEAM Family

The BEAM Family and the Miracle Tree:
Dr. Kevin Beam, Adelyn Beam, Annabel Beam,Christy Beam and Abby Beam

Some of the actors in the movie: Jennifer Garner(Christy Beam), Martin Henderson(Dr. Kevin Beam-a vet), Patricia Riggen(The Director of the film), Queen Latifah(Auntie Angela) and Courtney Fansler(Adelyn Beam)

 All of you(and the others not in the photographer) did great.  Kudos!

Barbie and Her "Kens" (A Dollywood Title) #TeamYuan #KenBie My bubble was burst when the last scene after the credits was shown.  JEYA (Jai, Ethan, Yuan and Andoy) just woke up from a heavy night and they were wondering what happened then in big bold letters this was shown on the TV screen:  Ano nga ba? SOON! Ngarks. I was already very happy that BARBIE (Forteza as Billie Bendiola) and KEN (Chan as Yuan Lee or Lee Yuan) ended up together.  I even shouted it out via FB(viewed by Friends of Friends) then as I was enjoying the after credits scenes, the very last one was that messy pool scene. Everything was just a dream! Come on! I know it's fiction, but to play with our emotions like that?  That is such BS. If I only knew that they'd do that, I would've finished Father Rio's send off party.  :-p  It's different when people wake up from a nightmare, but my goolai.  Why did they have to make it a dream?  If they want Barbie(at least h

EX with BENEFITS (2015) R-13

How do I describe this movie without giving spoilers?  Hmm.  Let me think.  Ah, I think I know how.  Directed by Gino M. Santos Written by Jeff Stelton and Keiko Aquino Loosely based on or inspired by the  Wattpad   sensation by  youramnesiagirl  of the same title, is a story of finding your self worth and about living.  It's also about relationships not of the romantic kind and about responsibility.  This movie is NOT all about sex.  There's more to it than that .  It also doesn't stereotype med reps and doctors. Things like these  happen whatever profession or non-profession you are in, and even if there are people like that  in real life, we must believe that there are more people who live life with integrity(listen to Carmi Martin's lines somewhere in the movie), so please don't be scared to watch this. This movie is about loving, losing, sacrificing, being selfless et cetera, et cetera .  It's about many things, and sex is just a part

Atonement (2008)

source Atonement  is about Briony Tallis, a young aspiring writer of thirteen who witnessed or thought she had witnessed something atrocious between her older sister, Cecilia, and her long time crush who rejected her when she was about ten or eleven. A series of events that have gone wrong made her demons play inside her head that she saw only what she wanted to see. This in turn ruins the life of Robbie, the young man she adored, but loved her sister dearly. *Young Saoirse(Sear-sha) was very, very effective in her role of Briony  that earned her several nominations and awards. *James McAvoy was a very intriguing Robbie * I don't like the 17-18 year old Briony much. They could've gotten a better actress, but she was good enough. * Vanessa Redgrave's cameo was fantastic! * I like Christopher Hampton's adaptation of Ian McEwan's novel * The music was haunting * Keira's eyes and body language were great...she's really a "classic"
