Seven Pounds DVD
If you want an uplifting and sometimes heartbreakingly beautiful film, then you should pick up the Seven Pounds DVD. This film stars Will Smith as Ben Thomas, a man who wants to atone for his past by embracing seven people and offering them things that will help them get out of their own troubles.
It is during this quest that Smith's character falls in love with a woman who has heart issues. Rosario Dawson takes a seemingly emotional role and makes it as complex and nuanced as any other. There are scenes in this film that will push reality and plausibility, but the liability of the characters and the acting chops of Smith and Dawson carry this movie so that the viewer will be unable to turn his or her head away.
The Seven Pounds DVD is as much about generosity and the act of helping people as it is about one's self-realizations and evolution. If you want a film that will walk you through many emotions, then Seven Pounds is definitely the right choice. By the end, you will feel incredibly connected to the characters and will want to go watch the film again and again.
