a {new} favorite

i have discovered a new favorite movie this week
it is called mary & max... and it happens to be done in claymation...
the story is drawn from a true story about a young girl in australia and a man in new york {who has aspergers syndrome}...these two characters become pen pals and the story goes on from there..it's not really a movie for children...but it reminds me of the innocence of youth, the harshness of society, and the things we take for granted in our lives.

i am not really offering a critic of the movie, but i just thought i would share a new found favorite.

p.s. this movie makes me want a pen pal... {there is something so simple and beautiful about a handwritten letter}
