The Giver

Hubby had to work today, so I decided to see a movie. I chose The Giver because the time fit my schedule.

I had never heard of the book, but found it's for grades 3-7. Frankly, I'm not sure the story would appeal to Elliott. Maybe he'll see it someday and I'll find out.

For me, it was totally unrealistic, yet somewhat thought provoking. Jeff Bridges was entertaining to watch, but the others were so-so, including Meryl Streep.

Bottom line, I recommend waiting for the Netflix release. If nothing else, The Giver is something different with no cursing, blood, or sex.
