| A Movie That Will Inspire You to do Good to Others |
Oh man! This is a such a powerful movie. Starring Kevin Spacey, Helen Hunt, Haley Joel Osment (AI, Sixth Sense), and James Caviezel. To have the noble idea started by a little kid makes it more compelling. He came from a broken family with only her mom to support him. Reminds me of the song "You And Me Against The World" by Paul Williams. Her mom (Helen Hunt) struggles everyday between alcoholism and survival for herself and her family. When the teacher (Spacey) gave an assignment to his students, Trevor came up with a simple idea. Paying a favor not back, but forward, and not to one person but to three. Not only he gained the attention of his teacher, but also his mother who is the most important person in his life. Initially he thought it was a failure. But soon, the idea spread from city to city and then the whole nation. It became a crusade and changed the world around him. It is very inspiring that it encourage you to do good to other people. For some people, which includes me, this is one movie that affects you deeply and may be thinking afterwards for weeks.

This film is a must to see. I have seen it over and over again and I cry everytime, but it makes me feel good at the same time.
I can understand why a mouvement was started from this movie, and is still going on today. It also makes us, those who can, realise that we can sometimes do a little more to help someone without expecting to be paid back. |
