‘Take’

August 28th, 2008 . by Erin

A really cool thing happened to me the other day. I managed to get a hold of a movie that hasn’t come out yet. Very cool…and always a good thing.

The movie is called ‘Take’ and stars Minnie Driver and Jeremy Renner. The best thing about independent movies is that you never know what you’re going to get. I LOVED this movie. I am not the biggest Minnie Driver fan, but she did a phenomenal job.

The movie starts out with a day in the life of Ana (Minnie Driver) and Saul (Jeremy Renner). At first you are wondering what’s going on until it becomes apparent that a tragedy has happened and what you are getting is the back info to that particular day. What you don’t know, is what happened or to whom, so it has you guessing until closer to the end of the movie.

After working in a movie theatre for the total of about 4 years, I have seen a lot of movies. Never have I seen one with such a powerful message of forgiveness, and I doubt I will ever again. It’s not a light hearted film but it is an excellent one, and you would be cheating yourself if you don’t see it at least once.

I’m putting the trailer in my post so everyone can watch and see… and be intrigued. Enjoy!

    I’ll have to watch it when I get home. I don’t have speakers here, at work.

    But I really like Minnie Driver, so I’m interested in it.

    Erin, can you email me? You can just use the email in my profile. I would love to get more info about it, even if that means I have to come down there. Yikes. ;)

    So, I just watched the trailer, and it does look amazing. However, if what I think happens, happens, I don’t know how likely I will be to see it.

    I have anxiety related to my husband being killed or seriously hurt, that developed when he was working a dangerous job. I will never watch P.S. I Love You, for that very reason. This is going to be tough.

    Is it true about the screening on Thursday? I have been hearing a rumor that it will be showing down here?
