I think this is one of the most amazing movies one could see. It is so good that it can make you feel many different emotions...fear, shock, sad, happy, cry... Some also call it the WalMart Baby movie. What did you like the most about this movie?

I love it too!! For all the reasons you said and more. I love the speech that Novalee says to Lexie about what to tell her children about the abuse/ abuser when they asked why it happened. And I just love the names in the movie! I love Americus. Some of it: "You tell them that our lives can change with every breath we take... and to hold on like hell to what they've got: each other, and a mother who would die for them and almost did... You tell them we've all got bad in us, but we've got goodness too. And the only thing worth living for is the good. And that's why we've got to make sure we pass it on."


Lexie & Novalee

Your very right. Those were some very touching words! The movie had a huge impact on so many different levels.
I thought it was funny how Lexie would name all her kids after snack foods. LOL I agree with you though, that movie did have some pretty great names in it! Although, I wouldn't name my child Americus. LOL

I also loved the names in the movies! Really original!:DD

Did you know that there is also a book about it....lots of differences in it though, like instead of the number 5 it's 7 in the book.....check it out!


myLot reputation of 63/100. GnosticGoddess (3490)   ranked 13 out of 13 in where the heart is  5 months ago

Yeah I knew it was a book. But I love the movie so I don't want to taint it lol.

I don't quite know, I watch a lot of movies. Is it the one about the music teacher?


myLot reputation of 87/100. moonflowerpixy (374)   ranked 8 out of 13 in where the heart is  4 years ago

Looking at the other reponses I would say no. I have not seen it. Maybe I'll rent it this weekend. Looks and sounds excellent.:)


myLot reputation of 92/100. brokentia (7815)   ranked 1 out of 13 in where the heart is  4 years ago

That's okay. Look into renting this movie. You will not be disappointed!
Then you can come back and tell us if you liked it.
I think I am going to watch it again this weekend myself.:)

Where the Heart Is is a great movie! I have loved this movie from the first time that I saw it. What is not to love?
Natalie Portman... Brillient, her portray of Novelee is wonderful. This is my first movie where I saw Natalie, what a wonderful actress.
Stockard Channing as sister, I love the part where she and her "husband" are talking about the table... ha ha
And last but not least Ashely Judd!! She does a great job in this movie. How many kids did she have in this movie? Was it some crazy number like seven?
This is a great movie and I would recommend it to any one!


myLot reputation of 92/100. brokentia (7815)   ranked 1 out of 13 in where the heart is  4 years ago

Now, who would be crazy enough to have SEVEN kids? LOL

I love that movie. I love watching the growing relationship between Novalie and Forney. It is a wonderfull movie and my husband even loves it. Figure that one out. My kids think it is great just because it has walmart in it.

I love that movie! We call it the WalMart Baby Movie!!! Some times I can't remember what it is actually called because that is what we call it!

The movie was filled with different emotions and that is why I think that I liked it! If a movie can make some one feel all of those emotions in one movie......its must be great!!!

It is, by far, one of my favorite movie. Usually, I will not watch a movie more than once, but I watch that one whenever I can.
