What a great, charming movie.


Let me tell you... I had a terrible week this week. I got into a huge fight with a friend of mine, am on the verge of failing a class and on top of that, losing my financial aid due to mix up in my school's system. I come home from a long day and flip through TV channels to see what was interesting and I stumbled upon this film. I dont think I've ever seen a movie that left me with a smile on my face the entire time. It was just so charming, sweet and heartwarming that it instantly brought me out of the gloominess I was feeling, even though the movie brought a tear to my eye at the end.

The soundtrack is just a perfect fit for the movie and has a nostalgic feel. Josh Hutcherson's narration to the story just makes it all the better. He is a very talented actor and it's no wonder he has been doing as well as he is in the business. Just I wish Charlie Ray would have made more movies than this. She is also an amazing talent. I just wanted to thank the writer/director spouse team and of course the amazing actors and story. :-)

Yep, Little Manhattan may not be an oscar material or may not have been released in thousands of theatres. I don't care. This one remains a personal favourite to me that i will never forget. Even I've loved and lost someone...i don't know how but in the end this movie had me in tears...this is one of the closest-to-my-heart movies, and for me this is a 10/10.

Yip, I totally agree, this movie had me smiling from start to finish - I can't think of another film that has done that to me before. Also had a tear in my eye at the end. This film is up there with my favourites - very refreshing.
