new favorite movie!

So we have been netflixing (I made up a new verb) lots of movies lately and with hubby trying to brush up on all things Africa we put Out of Africa on the list. It was the best movie. The acting was better than anything I have seen made by hollywood in the last 20 years. The story was not filled with needless sex and violence or CGI effects. It was just a good story with good actors told in the most beautiful place in the world, Kenya. I feel silly that I am almost 30 and have never seen this classic. Don't get me wrong, it's not a movie that the guys are going to sit around watching during poker night but my hubby liked it and it was a good couples movie. It is long so be prepared for a long night and have a box of tissues at hand. You will never look at Meryl Streep and Robert Redford the same way again!
