I don’t know if you have ever heard of this movie before, but I hadn’t. I only recently found and watched it and I was entranced. The movie is called Nell. It has Jodie Foster and Liam Neeson in the starring roles. The movie is about a hermit girl found living deep in the woods. When her mother is discovered to have died, she is found. No one knew that she existed so were completely taken by surprise by her appearance. Since her mother had suffered a stroke long ago and talked funny, Nell talked funny as well and they had to decipher her words to figure out what she was saying. There is of course much more to it than that, but I don’t want to spoil it for you. Watch it and see. It was a really great movie.
