I just got finished watching ‘The Secret Lives of Bees’ tonight. I loved the book, so decided to buy the movie. Dakota Fanning is like my ‘I wish I had’ daughter, she is such a great actress.

Queen Latifah and Dakota Fanning
I wasn’t certain who played Lily’s dad, but I kept thinking-gee that looks like that English actor Paul Bettany and sure enough it was! He really is a great character actor. Everyone was good!
The movie was close to the book, but not as spiritual. Mary was a big part of the book-read it and find out!

Yesterday, my father has been gone a year. This movie shows a father with a trouble past, and of course made me think of my own.
