Review of Lean on Pete (2018) by Cee H — 30 Apr 2018

If film is art and great art moves you, then this film is an absolute must see. The most realistic portrayal of how difficult life can be. The reality comes from the feeling that I sadly felt like I personally had met every character in the film.

You will feel this way too if you grew up in a small town with quarter horse racing nearby. Warning this film is gut wrenching and guaranteed to evoke tears. Not the feel good pick me up movie of the year just incredibly sad and moving.

You will leave realizing what a blessed life you have had despite your hardships.
