    Dawn’s movie review:
    This film, like all the great ones, begins with a heroine. We find Faye yearning for her mac n’ cheese, but thwarted by the plastic fork that keeps getting in her way. With a determined spirit, she pushes the fork aside and goes after her dream- one macaroni at a time! But that’s not to say that there isn’t comedy, too, and Faye’s mother Donna plays a delightful supporting role, sharing a funny scene where she and Faye push a sippy cup of water back and forth (“You take it!” “No, you take it” “No, I want it back!” “No, YOU take it!”- this reviewer’s sides split!). Finally, Faye reaches her goal when she takes the last bite of mac and cheese from her plate and the audience can’t help but cheer for her. Equally touching is the closing scene, where we see the metaphor of Faye picking up the fork which she earlier discarded in order to follow her destiny, and watching her find its true purpose- celebratory noisemaker! A heartwarming, triumphant tale sure to become a classic!
    :-D

    Thanks, but we have plenty of plastic dinnerware. I just prefer using the real plate because it’s safer in the microwave and it’s heavier so she can’t pick it up and dump it out as easily.
