Pick your movie of the week: AnnaSophiea Robb (Sept 22-28, 2024)

This weekend I watched a new Netflix movie, Rebel Ridge. It was pretty decent, and I thought the female lead looked familiar. It turns out that she was a child actress in a lot of movies and TV shows my kids watched when they were little. So she’s peers with my 20-something children. You may not have seen any of these movies considering who their target audience was/is, so I’ve included a plot synopsis with each one. Vote for one in a comment to be our Movie of the Week:

Because of Winn-Dixie (2005)A mischievous dog befriends a lonely young girl in a new town and helps her make new friends.

Bridge to Terabithia (2007)Leslie and Jess create the secret kingdom of Terabithia, a land of monsters, trolls, ogres and giants where they spend their free time ruling as king and queen and fighting evil creatures.
