Featured review
Excellent film
I recently watched this film (after having it recorded for over a month) and found it fascinating and inspirational.
Even for someone without breast cancer, Gerlyn had a way of making me feel strong in other aspects of my life.
I am currently taking a film class in college, and the cinematographer and director did a spectacular job of using the many elements of film watching here. In fact, I think they used them all. Great Job!
This is a definite must-see. I am not sure if Lifetime will or has aired it again since it viewing in Oct., but I know many of their movies are kept at the library and some video stores.
