Thanks for sharing!

"When Things Seem Impossible" is another one of my favorite movies based on a true story that was very inspiring to me. I'll have to watch it again with Her2 in mind:

"Front of the Class" is based on the true story of Brad Cohen, who, after being challenged by Tourette's syndrome from a very young age, defies all odds to become a gifted teacher.

Two thumbs up on this movie in my book.

I've never seen The Sound of Music. I recently was traveling and it was one of the movie options on the flight. I'm not typically able to sleep on planes and one of my friends (who I was traveling with) told me to put on that movie and that it would put me right to sleep. :-o

One of my favorites is When Harry Met Sally.
