Sometimes movies just don't feel real enough for us viewers to connect with. The story will be too good to be true or the smile won't be authentic enough. Whatever it is, it makes enjoying the movie and learning from it much harder.

October Baby was not that kind of movie, though. It was touching. Hannah (Rachel Hendrix) is a teenager in high school who suddenly finds out her parents adopted her. After this discovery, she goes on a road trip to find her birth mother.

If you're expecting this movie to be like all of the others, it's not. Not only is it different from the rest of the normal cheesy movies, it puts a controversial topic into a possibly new perspective. 

Want a movie that's empowering and realistic? A character that's human--far from perfect? Watch October Baby. It's a five-out-of-five in my book!
