AFI # 91: Sophie's Choice (1982)

#91 on 2007 AFI 100 Greatest Movies of All Time


We actually watched this movie over a year ago.  And this post isn't going to be super long.  But it is no accident that this movie was the last thing we watched before taking a year long hiatus.  And it's no accident that I never added it to the blog before.  I had seen Sophie's Choice before, a couple of times.  I also had read the book in college.  Mike had not seen this movie before, but he kind of knew what the choice was going to be, because it's hard not to know just from living in our society.  But the movie is just so moving and beautiful and sad.  Kevin Kline and Meryl Streep are both so amazing.  So, we watched it, but then we didn't know how to talk about it on the internet or where to rate it on our list.  So we just never did. And all we really have to say is:

If you have never seen this movie, you need to see this movie.
