Terms of Endearment, Finding Neverland, TKA Mockingbird

Having been involved with Cancer, loss and children, the first two films were hard to watch all the way through, much less not react strongly to. For all its faults and soap like tone, Terms did some things spectacularly well and was spot on in depicting some of life's challenges. Finding Neverland was a gem and a great talking point about life and loss with my own kids. They love the Deppster. Honorable mention to Depp and DiCaprio in Gilbert Grape.

To Kill A Mockingbird is in a class by itself in detailing a child's innocence, wonderment and adventure set against a dark backdrop of adult human weakness, fear, racism and inhumanity. The acting from top to bottom in that cast was as good as I've ever seen.

For reasons I can't explain, that movie has had a profound, lasting effect on me since I first saw it as a child all the way through to today.
