I think today I have to give the prize to the actress whose only credit was as one of the little girls in Norma Rae. As much as I try to resist the ubiquitous internet tendency to overshare private emotional information, I hereby confess before the world that I avoid watching that movie nowadays because I know it will choke me up every time.
