The Ringer-movie

[danikins]

Hey all,

I know this has been out a few years but I finally watched the movie yesterday and was wondering what other people thought? I am sure it has been discussed before, but I just rejoined lately.

I did enjoy it more than I thought. I was really worried about how they would treat the DD aspect.

I worked my first Special Olympics this past summer and found it more gratifying and enjoyable then anything I have ever done. I met a lot of cute couples with DS. Even though Dani is 5 and not doing any sports yet, I hope she will one day do our local--if not national-- Special Olympics.

I also almost finished the Memories Keeper's daughter and did get bored so never finished it.

It is amazing how time changes prespective. Kudos and hugs to all our BEAUTIFUL, PRECIOUS, LOVEBUGS.

Mom to Dani- [glow=red,2,300]I will love you forever and ever [/glow]

I did see this movie, in fact we own it. I thought it was cute. I didnt know if I would like it or not when I first heard about it. If you watch the commentary, it tells how they asked people with disabilities to help them with everything about the movie. My favorite part is when the uncle of the main character calls some athletes "retards". The main character yells at him and tells him NEVER to call them that!! That they are his friends! It is actually one of Leah's favorites. The special Olympics were also very involved in the movie.
