| | LOVED THIS MOVIE | Jeri Kate 03/04/2013 | | This movie gave you a look into the private word of the Hasidic Jewish world. Melanie starts out tough, but in order to gain trust, and investigate the crime, she has to change her way of dress, talk, and her way of thinking. It turns into a love story, which I found very sweet. I would love to own this on DVD so I could watch it at least a couple times a year! Enjoyed it that much! |
