Finding Forrester

Starring Sean Connery and Robert Brown, directed by Gus Van Sant, Finding Forrester is one of the feel good movies that is time well
spent.

This film is about two unlikely friends meeting and growing with each other. Forrester (Connery) and Jamal (Brown) begin a journey of writing, life and growth. Although the movie isn't completely original and holds few surprises (other then the cameo towards the end by Matt Damon), it's wonderfully done. The acting is superb by Sean Connery, and surprising to me, Robert Brown holds his own well against the veteran actor. I see a great future for the talented Brown.

Sometimes movies are meant to inspire, make you think and to make you feel. This is one.
