So cute

While waiting in a hospital lobby the other day, I overheard the two elderly ladies working the reception desk talking about movies they were interested in, and they brought up Amazing Grace. The thrust of this movie concerns attempts to end slavery in England, and the view these two gals had was summed up by this line, which I quote verbatim: "It's a cute movie. A cute movie about slavery."

Yes, human bondage certainly is fodder for cute movies.
