I'm going to be really pissed if this doesn't come out in the major movie joints.

go to the movie's website to see if it plays in your area.

Two thumbs up.... The movie was really good. Personally, I think everyone should go see this movie. I don't want to say too much for those that haven't seen it yet.

I wonder how they decided on which theaters to show the film at. It's only shown in 1 theater in Chicago and 3 theaters in the suburbs. I'm surprised that the usual places that show independent films aren't showing this movie. I think it's great that Oprah gave a plug for the movie.
DSTinguished1, try fandango.com click or enther name on the film titleand enter your zip code. That will tell you if the film is playing near you.

This is on my list of movies to see. There is also a book (seperate from the original) out in stores.

I saw it over the weekend and I thought it was pretty good. There were a couple of corny parts, but good nonetheless. It was definitely emotional. I missed the first 3 minutes (the foreshadowing) or so (I was hungry, y'all), so the ending was a total surprise for me. I think I liked it better that way.

For everyone who saw the movie, was it better, worse, or the same as the stage production from a few years back?

i cant say worse or better...but the play set the scene better to me. It's like in the play i sympathized with all the characters and I actually felt emotions and it made me cry a little. However, the movie was good, it just didnt evoke the same emotions if that makes sense?

I just saw the movie. It was just okay to me. I like the story line but it just seems like something was missing from the movie. DSTinguished, I feel the same way you do. The movie really didn't evoke any emotions in me. Maybe it was the way it was directed. I don't know. I think Elise did a great job though.
