Bella (2007) —
Bella is a wonderful, deep, pensive and profound movie. You have to be patient with it in the beginning, but as the story unfolds, it becomes a marvel. It's a story of tragedy and dealing with it, of love, and learning the true meaning of it. It's pure innocence and depth beyond measure. If it doesn't make you cry and touch you deep within your soul, then you don't have a soul. It is NOT a "chick movie", as many of my male friends have watched this movie and absolutely loved it. Some people thought it was too pro life, but I didn't view it that way. It wasn't pushy, as the decision was always the woman's, but it showed a side of life and love and of how beauty can come into your life in ways you'd never expect. Sometimes terrible tragedies or mistakes we make in life lead us to a place in life where we can truly appreciate and be open to love and opening our hearts. This movie is touching, nomatter what your political and religious views may be. It is beautiful, pure, simple and complex.
