It's always been tricky for me to answer "what's you favorite" questions. I don't have a favorite song, actor, TV Show, or even animal! So when I found out that Mr. M wanted us to blog about our favorite movie, it was definitely tricky for me to think of a movie that I absolutely adore, over any other movie! One of the reasons that picking a "favorite" is is so hard, is that I often love more than one. So it's really hard for me to narrow down all of the great movies I've seen and just pick one. So, though it is hard to pick a favorite, my favorite movie would have to be... Soul Surfer.
One of the reasons I loved the movie Soul Surfer was it was really inspirational. It really showcases how, even though Bethany had tons of good reasons to quit surfing, she persevered through her struggles and carried on. Bethany had such a passion for surfing that she wouldn't let anything get in her way. And even with only one good arm, she still continued to surf and compete! How inspiring is that? It makes me want to try harder, because I have all my limbs intact, and am very blessed to go to such a great school, and yet sometimes I still feel like giving up when things get hard! And then I remember people like Bethany, who went through so much and she still didn't give up despite the odds. What a positive, inspiring message that Soul Surfer had! I want to make my videos more like that!
Another reason I like Soul Surfer so much is that it was a true story. Don't get me wrong, I love fictional (mostly realistic fiction) stories, because you actually get to write the story, and create the characters and the problems they go through, and what not, but I just think it's really neat when someone goes through something so tremendous and inspiring, it's good enough to make a movie about. Movies like that make me think, "Wow, I can't believe someone real actually went through that!"Plus, true stories always motivate me. They make me realize how lucky I am and also how if they can stand up to a problem, I can too.
Finally, I love the movie Soul Surfer because the Hamilton Family are family friends of ours. It's cool to see someone you actually know have a movie about them. Wouldn't you think so? When I watched the movie, the whole time I was matching the actor or actresses faces to those of the real person, and it was really exciting to see a movie star acting like a person I know! Also, when I was on Oahu last summer with my family, we actually got invited to the premiere of Soul Surfer where we got front row seats to watch Soul Surfer on the beach with Bethany Hamilton and Anna Sophia Robb. Then, after the movie, we got invited to Anna Sophia Robb's penthouse to hang out. It was awesome!
In conclusion, Soul Surfer is the type of movie that stands out to me. I like it because it's motivating and has a life changing message, it's a true story, and the Hamilton Family are family friends of ours. I want to make my videos as interesting and inspiring as Soul Surfer
