My Movie Monday



Sophie (Shay Mitchell) and Carter (Jeremy Allan White) live next door to each other. So they know each others lives pretty well. They know each others' secrets. Yet they bring out the good in each other. Unfortunately, know one else knows what they do for each other in the hard times they face with their family and everyday life.



Is their love enough to suffice? Will they ever get out of this mess they are in?



Based on Chelsea Fine's novel. Its a sad story. Yet hopeful.

While other high school seniors are dreaming about their futures, Sophie and Carter are just trying to make it through each day. Carter is overwhelmed by issues at home as he struggles to support his mother. Meanwhile, next door neighbor Sophie is left to care for her three younger siblings in place of their absent and troubled mother. All that holds these two best friends together is each other, and knowing that each night they’ll sit together on Sophie’s front porch swing and escape from reality, if just for awhile. But as their relationship reaches a turning point and high school graduation nears, will their friendship become something more?



“Love. Not the kind you see in the movies or hear about on the radio. The real kind. The kind that gets beaten down and bloody, yet perseveres. The kind that hopes even when hope seems foolish. The kind that can forgive. The kind that believes in healing. The kind that can sit in silence and feel renewed. The real kind of love. It’s rare and we have it..”-Sophie & Carter
