Happy Mother’s Day 2007
Happy Mother’s Day to all mothers out there.
I’ve just returned from watching “Away From Her”. My husband Charlie had arranged for the whole family to go and watch a special screening which was followed by a question-and-answer session with Sarah Polley and Michael Ondaatje.
I had read about the movie before and knew all the plot lines. I almost always cry at movies, but usually only at the climax. This movie had me in tears from a point about 1/3 of the way in, in part because I knew what was coming. I recommend this movie. It’s sensitive and real and Canadian.
And now, my daughter has arranged a special dinner. It’s so wonderful to have a day to be pampered. Hope all you mothers are enjoying yours.
