We Bought a Zoo


We thought this was good. I cried.
On the down side, it did have some bad language...
so maybe wait and clearplay it if that bothers you, or if you want your young kids to watch it.

White Christmas

Yes, this is a cheesy and predictable movie. But you just cannot beat Bing Crosby's voice or Vera Ellen's dancing. Wow.

127 hours

This is an amazing movie about Aron Ralston, the man who had to cut off his arm to escape his entrapment from a boulder. It is rated R, but with the genius of ClearPlay, there is no language or inappropriate scenes. They even cut out (ha ha) the cutting. We watched this and felt inspired. I am sure that Elder Dallin H. Oaks was not promoting the movie, but he did re-tell the story a few conferences ago, with a reminder to check our priorities and desires. There is also a book, "Between a Rock and a Hard Place", perhaps a future read...
