The Decendants...

I'd read this book almost two years ago, then found out they were making a movie

from it and I couldn't wait!

Hubby and I went the other day.  He thought it was going to be a "chick flick", but came

away loving it as much as I did.

Loved the opening voice over...that's a true picture of living here.

The director got it right...leaving shoes outside the door, gecko sounds, goats, even the

old kamaaina house decor.

Sometimes I think "local" audiences are the hardest to please.  There are so

many wrong depictions of Hawaii...we can appreciate when someone actually

gets it right. Not often movie audiences clap throughout a movie.

So, if you'd like to see a great movie about modern Hawaii, this is the one.

*the girl's language can be rough*

also loved the soundtrack, pure Gabby.
