The Magic of Belle Isle

The moment the movie opens, I felt like Ahh, this is the place I want to go for vacation and settle down. Set at a lakeshore, a very rustic charming house in a cosy neighborhood where everybody knows everybody, Morgan Freeman and Virginia Madsen spin their magic. The 9 year old daughter has played the role flawlessly and the entire movie has it aww moments. I wonder if there really are any adults who do interact with kids like this. Perhaps I missed them my young age ! I saw this movie four times with my hubby who is a huge fan of Morgan Freeman. Be it The Shawshank Redemption or Along came a Spider or even Bruce Almighty, when Morgan Freeman is in the movie, its a sure shot winner.
If you are looking for a feel good movie then this is the one.
