Frozen River (2009, DVD) A must-see movie!

I would totally recommend this movie. It has a terrific storyline, following two single mothers who are in tough finantial situations, and live in the area
of Massena, NY, the Mohawk reservation, and Canada. They meet under very tense
circumstances, but after their first run across the frozen St. Lawrence,
illegally transporting undocumented aliens through the reservation, they forge
a strong and dependant friendship. Through a series of intense events, leading to an exiting climax, Ray and Lila make tough decisions based on their friendship,and love for their children. The movie had excellent acting,(Melissa
Leo was Oscar nominated for her role as Ray), and kept me on the edge of my seat in suspense. Its portrayal of its Native American subjects was very respectful. As a resident of the Massena area, It was neat to recognize some of the scenery. A must see!
