We just watched "Nell" on one of our movie channels. What a fine movie!

Altho I saw it years ago, I was riveted by this movie. Jodie Foster was incredible.

I got so into it I couldn't tear myself away to make dinner. We ate pretty late this evening but saw it through.

everybody in this movie was outstanding. Did it win an Oscar?

No Oscar, just a great performance. I agree, Jodie Foster is an incredible person, in addition to her great skills in the entertainment industry.

I mourned her when I saw her in this film.

Was it based on a true story?
