Every year many movies get completely over looked by the blockbuster top sellers and are completely forgotten about by the public. Here is two underrated movies to look out for this year.

Snow Flower and the Secret Fan

A beautifully filmed movie, based on the book of the same name, about friendship and hope. It goes through a story of friendship in modern day China complicated by demanding careers, relationships, and life, but when they find the connection to their ancestral past and the story of a friendship from 19th-century china they realize how important their friendship truly is. It will be in limited release in theaters this year, but definitely a movie to look out for.

A Little Help

A dramatic comedy about a woman (Jenna Fischer) who’s life in essence is falling apart, and in order to take care of herself and her 12 year old son she finds herself getting wrapped up in a series of very bizarre lies. It takes a refreshing comedic look on a usually dramatic scenario making for an interesting yet moving movie. It’s not really made it into the public eye yet being an impendent film, but it’s well worth the watch.
