Very Good, Drama/Love Story, 1 February 2009
9/10
Author: Gforce598 from United States

I recently viewed this movie and found it to very well acted and the story line to be a bit different from the normal everyday run of the mill Holleywood knock off film with just a different twist. More of a testament to how people can change one another's lives for the better just by being there for each other. It's about coming to terms with one's own thoughts and hatred and grieving for the loss of a loved one and then moving on with your life. It's about how love can bridge the gaps of time to bring two people together even in the most solemn of times. I would have to say that this is definitely one of the better films that I have seen for awhile. Very worth the time to watch.
