Where The Heart Is

Starring: Natalie Portman, Ashley Judd, Stockard Channing, and Joan Cusack 

Directed by: Matt Williams

Synopsis: An unwed pregnant teen lives in a Wal-Mart and delivers her baby there after hours. The fame she receives allows her to overcome the "trailer trash" stereotypes that would have prevented her from becoming the person she could be.

My thoughts: Like the title suggests, this movie actually is "where the heart is." Truly compelling and heartfelt performances from all of the cast.

Score: 9 out of 10
