Dear Frankie
I somewhat doubt that many would even recognize the title Dear Frankie when speaking of movies, but it’s one that I’ve wanted to see for some time. Unfortunately being a low budget movie it came and went from the theatres almost unnoticed. Even though the movie won 7 awards, most of which were film festivals leaving the movie still unrecognizable to the general public.
In a world where even movies with a good message resort to extreme circumstances to portray how out of horrid can come good, as is the case with so many other movies out today. Instead Dear Frankie takes the approach of showing the beautiful side of what good can come of life, and only skims the bad… since we can all fill in the gaps with our imaginations the need to show the horrid things in life is simply unnecessary, something that was a relief about this story. I won’t go into the story or anything since I’m sure most haven’t seen it, but I do highly suggest it. Dear Frankie ends hopeful and reassuring, but doesn’t complete the story, as it should be in my mind since no story is ever complete.
