Lars and the Real Girl is a clever movie. Even though at times this movie was slow it had a good meaning. Lars is a lonely 27 year old man who lives in his brother's garage. He never socializes, but attends church every Sunday. One night he tells his brother and his sister-in-law he wants to bring his girlfriend to dinner. They are overjoyed! The next scene had me cracking up! Lars brings in his fake mannequin girlfriend, Bianca. Anyways, I don't want to spoil the movie, but it really teaches us how to love each other. The entire town supports Lars and welcomes Bianca. Despite Lars thinking she really is alive, the town and his family show compassion and love. This movie has no language and is really clean. Wouldn't it be great if everyone just treated people with compassion and love despite all of our differences and sometimes unrealistic thinking? Instead of always criticizing people, what if we helped them through, showing them a bit of God's grace? It's truly a good movie, be patient with it's slow scenes, it's worth it. :)
