    Heart-warming

    06 December 2008
    Heart-warming, charming and funny are the three words I can describe, ‘Where the Heart is’. The plot feels stupid but it somehow works. I always thought Natalie Portman was a decent actress but I thought she was excellent in this film. When the situation was funny or sad, she pulls it off very well. Ashley Judd and especially Sally Field were another reason why I liked the film. After a strong start, the plot does fade away a little bit but this is a very good, feel good drama movie and it is certainly different from what you would probably see on the big or small screen. You have to watch this to appreciate it.
