Bella

Like "Waitress", the story zeroes in on a woman who is very unhappily pregnant. How she deals with it, will I'm sure, be co-opted as ammunition by pro-choice and pro-lifers alike.

Despite what felt like a rushed ending, I really enjoyed this movie. The man is beautiful. A little too perfect, and with the beard, downright Jesus of Nazareth-esque. And of course, as with all movies filmed in the city, New York itself plays an unforgettable leading role.

I would see it again, if only to re-live the warmth and hilarity of the family scenes depicting a kind of family which most of us, I think, long for.
