Sophie's Choice


The other night while changing channels I came across this 1980's classic stariing Meryl Streep. And I spent the next two and a half hours just mesmerized by it. It tells the story of a Nazi concentration camp survivor living in Brooklyn.Little by little we learn of her past, until we get the point when we realize a dark secret she carries. A choice she had to make long ago.

Even though the movie can be melodramatic at times, it features what many consider the best acting ever done in a movie. And they may be right. Seeing Streep acting here is one of the most amazing things you'll see in a movie all your life.

Do try to catch it. It's playing on Showtime.
