We Bought A Zoo
Lovely, just lovely (:
I'll easily award it 4/5 stars.
Filled with wise-jokes from the supporting casts and the reality dialogue between father & son, made it most touching.
Some of my favourite quotes:
"You know, sometimes all you need is twenty seconds of insane courage. Just literally twenty seconds of just embarrassing bravery. And I promise you, something great will come of it."
"Let me know if you love me" - this scene was very touching..tho its just puppy love imho.
Also when Benjamin was struggling with the decision to put Spar to sleep..sometimes letting go is the best/right thing to do in life isn't it. You know that old saying, "If you love somebody, let them go. If they return, they were always yours. If they don't, they never were."
The final scene, the most beautiful..was when Benjamin reenacted the whole scene to his kids:
He (Benjamin) asks her(wife Katherine), "Why would an amazing woman like you ever speak to a stranger like me?" She smiled and simply replied, "Why not?"
Based on a true story, Dartmoor Zoological Park is situated at Devonshire, UK.

In seeking happiness for others, you find it for yourself
We mistake sex for romance. Guys are taught that
pushing a girl up against a wall is romance. Sex is easy; you can do it
with anyone, yourself, with batteries. Romance is when someone you like
walks into a room and they take your breath away. Romance is when two
people are dancing and they fit together perfectly. Romance is when two
people are walking next to each other and all of a sudden they find
themselves holding hands, and they don’t know how that happened.
Congratulations Melisa & Shawn!
Cannot wait to attend your wedding in January (:

"You say that you love rain, but you open your umbrella when it rains. You say that you love the sun, but you find a shadow spot when the sun shines. You say that you love the wind, but you close your windows when wind blows. This is why I am afraid, you say that you love me too."
-William Shakespeare
