I could not hold back the tears watching 'Holly & Ivy'. This movie is crafted to be a tear jerker, no question. I'll just put forth a generic summary, because the beauty of this movie speaks for itself.
A woman with a master's degree has one dream in life: to be a librarian. She is doing everything she can to secure a job in a local library, but it's taking a lot of time and effort volunteering etc. Unfortunately, she's young, single and unemployed and in the process of remodeling a house she recently purchased. It's not a great situation.
A neighbor lady has two girls named Holly & Ivy. These girls are so adorable. These two women become instant friends and are so endearing. Take into account the cute and cuddly aspects of 4 females having a lot of fun and sharing dreams and memories and all that sappy stuff. There is also a man in the picture who dreams of creating woodworking masterpieces, but his father is pressuring him to take a solid job. This story is presented so well, it will touch your heart. It's not silly or lopsided, it's simply quite moving.
With an amazing film like this, I need not elaborate. You will love it, you will be touched. Tissues on standby required, or use your sleeve; but if you watch this with family, friends, or significant other, they will witness your blubbering. If that is not your wish, delay viewing this until you are alone (with ample tissues).
