My favorite scene is the one where the blind English professor gets Maggie to read him a poem in the nursing home. Maggie has a learning disability and can't read very well, and she tells him that she is a slow reader, and he tells her that he is a slow listener. She gets through her first poem and then he makes her discuss the poem the way you would in a freshman college English class and gives her a boost of confidence.
I like this movie so much (just because of that scene) that I may have posted this before.
Oh yeah, and the stepmother is perfectly despicable.
