incredible story

This came on while I was doing something, and I too was busy to change the channel. At first glance I thought it was the story about Abby Curren, and didn't realize what the movie was really about. I paid enough attention to follow what was going on, and I'd look up when I heard something that I needed the visual connection to understand, but I was sort of dismissive of it at first.

As the story evolved, it snuck up on me and grabbed my attention without knowing it. By the time the movie reached the interview portion of the pageant I couldn't stop watching... I'm sort of a "guy" and don't get emotional very often, but as I watched the joy of these girls as they went across the stage, I was literally in tears. I felt this movie to become a very powerful and uplifting story. Very glad I watched

Truly Inspiring

Miss You Can Do It is the epitome of why Abby won Miss Iowa in the first place. Creating such a genuine program truly demonstrates the heart she has for these girls, and this documentary shares that heart with the viewers. The film gives insight to not only who the contestants are, but what challenges they are facing as well. You become sucked into each girl's story and you can't help but smile at their unadulterated joy at being on that stage. Through compelling story telling and phenomenal structure, we really get a feel for why this pageant was created; to make sure special girls realize how special they truly are.

Feel good film all around

An amazing look into to something that is changing the lives of these little girls and their families. The only conflict that you experience when watching this film is the constant self- reflection of you're own life and the things you take for granted like walking.

It's an amazing thing to watch a feature length documentary that is not dominated by a storyline and can just present an event while still being able to keep your attention. This is done by the careful construction of stories that the families tell about their children and showing the shear joy they get through this unique experience. Well done Abbey Curran!

A story that will touch your heart, will make you cry ... at the end you will be indebted to all around you, grateful to almighty...

Miss You Can Do It

Honestly I didn't want to watch this documentary at first. I didn't want to have 'survival guilt' and have my heartstrings artificially pulled. I've seen many of these kinds of documentaries before but this one is different. Hope is the central character that floats on top of every scene, like an invisible shield in a Saturday superhero cartoon show. This film doesn't gloss over the truth but shed light on everyone else that is affected by a child's disability or two or three. "Miss You Can Do It" focuses on eight contestants preparing for a beauty pageant created by Abbey Curran, Miss Iowa USA 2008 and the first woman with a disability to compete at the Miss USA Pageant. My heart sinks when a parent say that they don't know how long their child will live and that this pageant celebrates her life and gives everyone HOPE.
