A Columbia pictures, Finding Forrester starring Sean Connery as William Forrester, Rob Brown as Jamal Wallace. Directed by Gus Van Sant and written by Mike Rich.

          Jamal Wallace a smart 16 year old boy gets a scholarship to go to a prodigious private school. With great luck Jamal meets a famous writer named William Forrester. As Jamal learns from William on how to write better, William learns from Jamal how to live and get out of his apartment and enjoy life outside the apartment.

          The movie had very good quality because it shows what it looks like in New, York. The acting too helps show how the theme and the atmosphere of where the movie takes place.

          I think that the movie is trying to tell you to live not how to live but to just live, and try to get out and do things before something happens that will throw everything off and you may never do it, like William in the movie he never left his apartment for so long so he never got to live the way he should of when he had the chance.

          William Forrester kind of reminds me of the Grinch, because like William the Grinch never left his den and he scared people just like William does in the movie. Also just like the Grinch William let someone in and became friends with him.
