It's the brand new film with Dakota Fanning, Jennifer Hudson and Alicia Keys in...


We are counting the days until December 5 (which is 29 from today FYI!) so we can go and see...

It's a bit of a tear jerker so definitely one to go and see with the girls or if you are after a cuddle of a special lad then don't forget to take tissues with you!

Check out the trailer here to see if it's one for you...

 

The film is a coming of age story about the need for love, family and redemption.

The Secret Life of Bees explores our undeniable desire for a sense of belonging and the often daunting journeys that we must navigate to achieve it.  Set in America during a turbulent time, the home of the intelligent and independent honey-making Boatwright sisters (Queen Latifah, Alicia Keys and Sophie Okonedo) is suddenly thrust into upheaval with the arrival of fourteen year-old Lily Owens (Dakota Fanning) and her caretaker Rosaleen (Jennifer Hudson). 

Surrounded by the unexpected comforts, grace and deep rooted spirituality Lily encounters in the Boatwright home, she forms a maternal bond with each of these women whose unique and special gifts help reconcile the loss of her mother. 

Lily ultimately comes to the realization that sometimes you must leave home in order to find it.

It's pretty deep but we can't wait to see Jennifer Hudson in her next film since Dreamgirls... wonder if it's going to be as good?
