Armornone Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Hi. I just saw this movie called Charly ( 2002) and it was kind of sad. First it started out as a comedy of a new york girl who visited her parents in Utah and how she would make fun on the mormon guy all the time. Then she went from being a jerk to being a mormon like in a flash which was a shocking and surprising transition considering how she was making fun of it 2 minutes ago. Then I thought it was the end of the movie when she married the guy and had a baby and but then out of nowhere, she gets cancer and dies. Really sad stuff. I wonder why they could have not ended the movie after they got married. It was kind of like that movie American beauty with a shocking ending.

Hemidakota Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Was that based on a old LDS book name Charley? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generally_Me Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Yes it was. The book was better; they crammed too much into the movie, hence the flashing forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celica Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Charly is one of my favorite non church movies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honor Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Really? It was hard to take it seriously... not exactly the best acting (that actress kinda bugs me). BUT I cried. I think I'm still in denial about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrioCyrain Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 What really bugs me is how dark the movie is. There wasn't any point of comedy relief, it just went to depressing to ultimate depressing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
