Movie Preview: The Secret Life of Bees
It's not every day that the film adaptation of a well-loved book appears to capture the same atmosphere and sentiments that the book does, but in my opinion, the trailer for The Secret Life of Bees looks like it might do just that. I loved the novel by Sue Monk Kidd; it was one of those books that left me feeling sad at the end because I had to part with characters I'd come to care about deeply.
The story follows 14-year-old Lily (Dakota Fanning) whose mother died, leaving Lily with an abusive father.
