I will put this in the top three best movies I have ever watched in my life. It was absolutely amazing. The acting was superb but most of all the story caught you not just at your heart but at your soul. I am not Italian, but I am a Southern country boy. I remember standing in the kitchen with my granny as she made all of the southern farm dishes from her mother, grandmother and generations before that. I traveled back in time thinking about all those wonderful memories that I had as a child. I laughed, and also tears fell down my face from remembering so many happy times. We need more movies like this, and not the crap that Hollywood keeps pushing out. This is what we need as a nation to heal our hearts and souls from the hate that has consumed this country over the past decade.
