SPOILERS AHEAD:
Penelope is a film worth watching. A film produced by Reese Witherspoon, it is about a blue-blooded heiress named Penelope (played by Christina Ricci) whose only fault was being born to the Wilhern clan, which was cursed by the town’s witch. As a result of the curse, Penelope was born with a pig snout for her nose and the only thing that would break the spell is when she is loved and accepted by one of her own.
Her parents, scared of how other people would be seen and treated by other people, faked her death. She then grew up in the confines of their mansion until the day came when she had to meet guy of nobility who would love her for what she is. And so the search and the match-making began. But every single guy walked away as soon as they see her face, except for one.
It's been a while since we watched in the Cinema. Our last date at the Cinema was a few months back when they showed Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and Transformers. I remember watching Transformers by myself while Tian and Xiane went to see Harry Potter.
Last Thursday, March 20, we watched this new 3D animation from 2oth Century Fox, Dr. Seuss’ Horton Hears a Who. Even before it was shown, Tian was already telling me that we will definitely watch it on the big screen once it's shown here in Doha. So we did! It was also our special treat for Xiane for being good both at home and in school.
