Saint Ralph

Ok, so it probably seems that all I do is go to the movies. But I just love movies, get over it. I saw another film tonight. Another great film. It's a Canadian Independent film called "Saint Ralph." To give a brief description from www.imdb.com

"Set in Hamilton in 1954, Saint Ralph is the unlikely story of Ralph Walker, a ninth grader who outran everyone's expectations except his own in his bold quest to win the Boston Marathon. Ralph is a fatherless 14-year-old with a seriously ill mother, who knows he's a time bomb waiting to explode into greatness, except that he has no idea where that greatness will manifest itself. An unfortunate incident of self-abuse in the community pool inadvertently sets him on this road when, as penance, Ralph is conscripted to the cross-country team. Desperate to believe a miracle will bring his mother out of a coma, Ralph becomes a convert to the church of running, and determines to win the Boston Marathon. "

This is a great film. It isn't playing everywhere, so if you see it playing in a theater, drop whatever you are doing and go see this.
