A movie with a beautiful tone which captures such issues as finding family in other places, foster homes, art expression to deal with the pain, a mother's s sacrifice, the search for truth, situational depression, the chameleon-esque change of appearance as things in your life change, is "White Oleander.." starring Allison Lohman, Renee Zellweger, Michelle Pfeiffer, Robin Wright Penn....beautiful beautiful movie..

And another nod for Girl, Interrupted, again, a beautiful tone, about friendship, and the DVD states what happened to the girls in the mental ward, in real life, they were based on real people......Lisa ended up having a family....they all got out......
