I just watched a great movie about a running race. Children of Heaven.

To quote netflix:
A delightful Iranian movie about a boy who accidentally loses his sister's shoes and must share his own sneakers with her in a sort of relay while each attends school at different times during the day. Finally, the boy enters a much-publicized foot race, hoping to place third. The prize: a new pair of sneakers. Directed by respected filmmaker Majid Majidi, Children of Heaven is just that -- heavenly.

Derreck cried!

it is a great movie!  thanks for the recomendation..  but i didn't cry...  i didn't even come close... 

i really enjoyed it... thanks for the recommendation


wow, you are some kind of tough - not even when she lost the shoe in the drain? Not even when he had to beg the coach to be in the race?

I am just kinda wussy - Derreck describes movies I like as "they talk alot and then you cry".

OK, I just moved it to the top my Netflix queue. It's been hanging out down around 200 (I keep my list kinda full -- 300+ -- so I can remember movies I want to see without having to make a list somewhere).

Based on this thread, I rented Children of Heaven.  My husband and I loved it!  My son  was very intrigued, but being a pre-teen, tried to keep me from noticing.  It's funny though because he brings it up now and then so I know he paid attention.

No one cried, we did smile alot and fell in love with the family.
