Dolphin Tale


Sawyer is a boy without direction. Summer is an injured dolphin washed ashore. Both lives will change forever when they meet each other on that beach. After Sawyer alerts animal rescue, he takes an active part in Summer's care. When her tail needs to be amputated, he enlists a local VA doctor to see if he can develop a prosthetic. It's never been done before . . . could it possibly work?

My son is reading the book upon which the movie was based, so we watched the film. It was heartwarming- formulaic, but a moving story nonetheless. At least part of it is factual. And the theme is good, summarized by a quote therein:

Just because you're hurt doesn't mean you're broken.
