this might interest some of you, though i don't know

you know how i like drama movies?

well: they just showed something on tv... finding a family

it is about this guy called alex, and the mom is bipolar.

it gets to the stage where alex goess for this court hearing, so that his momn is no longer a parent to him.

the rest of the movie focuses on alex's search for a new home, and also a promise to his mom.. that 1 day he'd get in to harvard university

very moving film for anyone who may want to see it

yes, that one!

it was actually brilliant.

their are not many movies where i can sit through it until the end, and that one is 1 of the rare jewels you don't often hear about.. and it kept my attention

so i suppose that is something, is it not?

ii'm curious

what does my location have to do is you can trust me or not?

lol

i could be from california, egypt, africa, planet mars... it makes no diffrence. lol

i hope you like the movie, as i say it's very moving.. so make sure you're in a good place to watch it

i say that because a while ago i watched a film " to save a life", people warned me against watching it in a depressed state, watched it anyway and it totally screwed me up. so..

i think in "the asylum" you can find sanest people in the world... dont you agree ??? they dont try to harm anyone else except perhaps themselves.... dont scheme like so called normal people and definitely are not selfish like those normals...

i can watch the movie ... i am almost out of my depressed state... spend last 2-3 years in it... now i am manic... its bipolar2 so no worries for next 4-5 years for me... but i know what you mean.... my favorite tv show is californication which is all about nihlistic despair... and a book by richard dawkins helped me get over depression.. movies never pushed me into depression but thats because i always read whats story before watching them..

I watched it yesterday as you recommended and found it so amazing and touchy.
I couldn't stop watching it!
Thanks for the recommendation
