Movie recommendation: August Rush - 04-29-08, 05:59 PM

I suggest everyone rent this movie. It's called August Rush, here's more info:
August Rush (2007)

It's about a boy who gets separated at birth from his mother, both his parents are musicians, his father an alternative rock artist and his mother a classical cello player.

It's one of the best movies I have seen in a very long time, it broke my heart watching it and I feel like crying up to now. It's a wonderful wonderful film that will leave you with appreciation for life and what God has given us, including the gift of music.

God bless
Faithful Son

Things I didn't mention, which might be frowned upon by some. August (the boy) is born out of wedlock, after his mother had a fling with his father. That's about the nastiest bit in the film from a Christian viewpoint.

It reminds me a lot of films like Oliver's Twist and those types of films.

God bless

Yes, that is a fact but I think it only adds to the beauty of the message in the film as a whole. They go through a heart wrenching, tragic few years because of this.."FLING" and in the end love wins out over all the sin...and a family unites....as it should. True Love and Unity always wins in the end. Seperation doesn't stand a chance. :) Mr. Wizard looses...LOL...let me hush..before I will give it all away.

The movie proves that God's mercy exceeds his anger and hatred to sin, He knew it was a sin, this *Fling* but He still united them because their hearts were crushed and they had no hope but to hope in God.

A pretty good movie, the little boy is very talented.
