Heidi (2015)
SO HEARTWARMING!!! PERHAPS MY FAVORITE MOVIE OF ALL TIME NOW!
I watched the movie dubbed in English-and normally that makes a movie a lot worse for me cuz it feels more fake-but in this case, even with dubbing, this is perhaps the most heartwarming, beautiful, moving, innocent, exciting, touching movie I have ever seen.
Many things meant for children are boring for adults, or things exciting for adults are inappropriate for children. This is really something beautiful, inspiring, exciting, and moving for every age.
This is now among my top three films, with Lord of the Rings and Hacksaw Ridge.
Thank you for inspiring me to believe in miracles once more! For me there was added magic perhaps because I had never heard of Heidi before so it was entirely new to me and the film was filled with surprises at every turn!
Avenues of Escape (2017)
Phenomenal-a harrowing journey and an inspiring message
This was an extraordinary film that sheds light on a largely hidden story about the persecution of Falun Gong in China and the extremes that practitioners must go to to to escape. It's also a story of resilience and conviction in the face of enormous pressure as well as the kindness of strangers along the way.
I myself have met with quite a few Falun Gong practitioners who fled to Thailand or Malaysia and who were resettled in New York City and Philadelphia, where I've lived. It's extraordinary to think of how these kind and humble people endured similar experiences, which remain far beyond my comprehension, just because they wanted to believe in the beautiful principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Tolerance.
