We are looking at this movie as an inspiration to be more accepting of the ever changing world we live in. To be open to new thoughts and ideas, and to live our lives to our fullest potential. A world where you can dream not only to be different, but to be accepted as you are.

This is a Father's Day special!

Million Dollar Baby is a powerful emotional drama directed by Clint Eastwood and inspiring in more ways than one. It's the story of an over-aged boxer whose determination takes her on a journey from an under-dog to a boxing hero. It's the story of an underrated coach from a grungy boxing gym who gets a second chance at being a father.

While the story is essentially about a boxer who wins most of her fights, the focus shifts more and more to the emotional connection between the boxer and her trainer, both devoid of other familial connections in their lives.

Forrest Gump is an award-winning, heartwarming tale, and a perfect watch when you're in the mood for a little soul-searching. The story is about one man's incredible and unexpected life journey. Tom Hanks plays to perfection the role of a lovable, yet not-so-intelligent character, Forrest Gump.

He goes through life trusting his instincts, treating everyone the same no matter their station in life, never backing down from a challenge, and always open to trying new things. Life throws us many curve balls, yet when we see the world through his eyes, the choices seem simple.

'Rocky' and the subsequent series of movies, is a brilliant portrayal of an underdog who rises above the challenges he faces and, with hard work and dedication, comes out on top.

The strength of the character is the faith he has in himself to go the distance. His lack of education and standing in life does not get him down. Instead, the humility of the character resonates with you long after you are done enjoying the series.
