Roger Ebert-August Rush review

Hello all,
I saw the movie August Rush when it came out in November. This movie spoke to me from the beginning. Maybe it was in that the main child character played by actor Freddie Highmore was searching for his parents and wanted desperately to get out of a boys orphanage. I am adopted and have never known my birth parents so I had no problem connecting to this concept. THis movie is about the young boy Evan and his search for his parents who are crazy in love but had gone seperate ways for different reasons. We all should be so lucky as to find that one special person! Evan is a musical genius who believes with all his heart that his love and talent of music will help him find his parents once more.
Roger Ebert could not have described this movie any better. I agreed wih all his points. This was one of the best, and most thought provoking movies that I had seen in some time. It is very hard to not know your background. The possibility of that being achieved can be very emotional for all involved no matter what the outcome may be. This was a very emotional movie for me. It felt like I had been part of it and the tears freely flowed at various points. Roger Ebert said it very well, " The ghost of Dickens would be applauding". This movie was very healing for me in a way and one that I will definately purchase when available. Roger Ebert's view of this movie was heartfelt and geniune. If you haven't seen this adn you like romantic or sentimental movies you should look this up. You won't regret. Sometimes sad stories do have happy endings!!
