Philomena

Have you seen the movie Philomena?

The Captain and I had a “date” which included dinner and a movie yesterday! 

We have occasional dates…

We think it keeps things fresh…by things I mean our relationship…yes, and a little exciting!

Sometimes we “meet up” at a pre-designated restaurant and after a delightful dinner decide to leave one car at the restaurant and go together to a movie! 

Didn’t I tell you I’m/we’re weird? 🙂

Sorry, back to the movie….

 

After eating at the Outback Restaurant…..yummy steak, … We went to see the movie “Philomena” and it is a great story!

A few tears….you know a box of tissues are always my friend and always in my pocket! 

AND the movie is based on a true story.  

I highly recommend seeing the movie!

Judi Dench plays the role of Philomena and I believe she will receive an Academy Award for her performance.

Below is a bit from the movie trailer:

As a teenager in Ireland, Philomena Lee  was banished to a convent for the ‘sin’ of having a baby out-of-wedlock, and forced to give him up. As a major new film about her life is released, she tells about their heartbreaking search for each other

The words of Philomena Lee: ‘To think the nuns never told us my son was searching for me’

The book title: The Lost Child of Philomena Lee, Author: Martin Sixsmith

If you go, or have gone to the movie…please give me your thoughts! 

Good?? or not very Good?
