Title: a movie that will stay with you
Review: This movie is so amazing that I watched it two weekends in a row to make sure I did not miss anything. I took a towel the second time because kleenex were not enough. The movie takes place in New Zealand in the Maori Indian culture. Pi's grandfaher is awaiting the birth of his grandson so he can lead his people once again, like the legend of the Whale Rider led thier people to New Zealand. The child was born dead and thus only his twin sister survived, and, in her grandfather's eyes could never be the leader that the Maori People needed. The young girl loved her grandfather, and her heritage, and forgave his narrow mindedness because she understood his frustrations and wishes she could be the grandon he wanted. The girl ( Keisha Cstle-Hugess ) gives the most touching performance I have ever seen, worthy of an Oscar nomination. Also, the scenery is beautiful and witnessing some Maori dances customs was an added bonus. Great for a family or a date!
