Special "Secret Life of Bees" movie screening.

I read The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd about a year ago and absolutely loved it. Now they're making a movie out of this great novel and I was lucky enough to score free tickets (courtesy of a book club I'm in)! The movie has tons of big name actors and actresses such as Queen Latifah, Alicia Keyes, Jennifer Hudson, Paul Bettany, and Dakota Fanning. I think the casting is excellent, although I don't really care for Dakota Fanning too much.

I'm not going to go into what the book is about because I believe most people have read this one already (and if you haven't then you should go read it right now). However, here's the trailer for anyone interested in viewing it.


While I'm usually skeptical about movies based on books, I still find myself anxious to go see them. This is especially true when I've loved the book in the past. I'm going to this special viewing on October 16th so I'll be sure to let you all know what I thought.
