At the recommendation of some men from my church - we meet most mornings for coffee- the wife
and I just watched the movie Taking Chance.
This is a movie (based on a true story) of a Marine officer escorting home the body of a soldier
killed in Iraq.
If you see one movie this year, see this one.
This 2009 HBO movie is moving in the extreme.
If this movie has been discussed before...I'm sorry....It is worth being mentioned again.

Re: MOVIES - Taking Chance
This is one of those movies that everyone should see.
Moving is an understatement!
I thought it was much better than "The Messenger"
with Woody Harrelson.

Great movie. I have seen it once and once was enough but still a great movie.

I agree, it was a great movie. I think it should be shown in every high school in America.
