Apologies for the late post. September was such a tough month for me.
A few months ago,  I got movie tickets to The Butler and a loot bag courtesy of Snoe Beauty Inc.


The advanced movie screening that I went to was in SM Aura. Apologies for the photos, but I forgot to tag along my camera. Before the movie, we were treated to unlimited red wine and other refreshing concoctions. OVN also offered the most delicious Barako Coffee Balls and Ensaymadas.

The Butler is a historical drama film directed by Lee Daniels and written by Danny Strong. 
The movie was inspired by Cecil Ganes, a African-American butler in the White House who served eight presidents for decades. The film shows the struggle for civil rights of  African-American people and what they went through then and now. I don't want to spoil everything, but I was moved by the part where they sat at a restaurant just to exercise their rights, that scene left me teary-eyed. The casting was amazing, you could really feel as if the actors and actresses were living the characters' lives. For a historical drama film, this movie is not at all boring. However, I don't know if it appeals to everyone. 
Nevertheless, I still suggest you all should watch this box-office film.

For those who have watched The Butler, this is an interesting read: http://bit.ly/LDTB_10
