Pitch Perfection

One of the favorite topics of my Journalism class last semester was a film entitled "Pitch Perfect."

Every week, they'd talk about it, sing about it, and even re-enact scenes from it. It was one of those "sleeper hits" that really made a strong impact on the audience - young and not-so-young alike. Heck, even some of D' Frendz talked and raved about this film at one point in time.

After seeing the film, I see why it resonated with the audience so strongly. It was a classic David and Goliath story, with the Barden Bellas as David and the Treblemakers as Goliath. And as we all know, by the time the Barden Bellas sang their finale, David triumphed again.



This last performance is perfect. The song was great, the choreography was fun, and best of all, the feel-good factor is high. Heck, I was misty-eyed after watching this scene because I felt ecstatic at how good the group was and how they triumphed against the front runners.

That does it. "Pitch Perfect" makes it to my list of the best feel-good movies ever.
