Smile (2005)

Drama - alternates locations between Malibu California and Jingxi China... Two girls born on the same day in opposite parts of the world connect through an organization called Operation Smile. The Chinese girl (Lin) was abandoned by her parents due to a facial deformity. The American girl (Katie) is daughter of a psychiatrist and lives in a large home overlooking the Pacific Ocean. A high school teacher introduces Katie to an outreach program offering cosmetic surgery for deformed kids in China, and somehow Katie becomes fascinated with the idea and travels all the way to Shanghai to participate. A bit Disney-like in its all feel good ending, but the acting is good enough and the scenery fascinating. 1 hr. 47 min.
