I truly enjoyed the movie. Up until this evening I had not heard of the story, and it touches upon some of the more challenging facets in life. Yes, It has low points, but if you do not experience the sad, stressful, or adverse moments, you will never truly appreciate the good moments. This movie was an excellent example of not allowing opportunities to pass you by. We need to find ways to succeed at what we can and have faith in ourselves. This is the type of story that will be useful to me as a teacher helping my students find a positive outcome in such a stressful situation. If you would like to watch a movie that helps bring out the better side of humanity, showing how important communication is to be successful, then I would recommend Swimming Upstream.
