In cinema club we watched the lovely bones. The lovely bones is a movie about a girl called Susie Salmon who gets murdered by her neighbour in Pennslvania. Susie gets stuck in the middle of heaven and earth trying to help her family find her body but they never do. Susies dad soon starts to believe that the neighbour killed Susie but nobody knows that he killed more girls before Susie. Susies killer dumped all of the other girls bodies but not Susies. Mr Harvey puts her in a sack and locks her in a safe and then he takes the safe with Susies body still inside and dumps it into a land fill never to be seen again. One night trying to offer a girl a lift home she refuses and walks away but an icicle falls and hits his shoulder and he stumbles and falls back off a cliff and dies never to be seen again. I thought the lovely bones was really good and i would recommed it to 1st years and up. I would give it a 8/10
