    Finding your way out of grief

    Some may think they moved too fast to become a couple. But finding your way out of grief is very difficult. If you find someone that helps you out of the fog of grief grab your n to them and don't let go.

    The people who think it's too fast must be expecting the deceased to return. As sad as it is, they are not returning. We will be with them again after we've lived our time here. But I am the kind of person that feels falling in love again, after losing a spouse, is a blessing. This couple months ved through a sad situation with grace and ease. Hold on to the ones that understand and help you through grieving. If you are able to build a new life with them all the better.

    2 good 2b true

    7.9 stars.

    It's a fairy tale. A family of five loses a mother. A family of four loses a father. The two families meet while in the throes of grief and loss. And like a fairytale Brady Bunch story formed in the midst of a church setting, where she works at the Christian school and his profession is... not sure what he does actually...it provides reassurance that luck (miracles) can penetrate a gloomy existence.

    As their families grow closer, all the people around them start to fear the worst. Those dumb people -"friends" and family begin to interfere with what appears to be a wondrous and beautiful miracle of a relationship, where two grieving families begin to mend.

    In so many ways, this could happen, in many more ways it is unlikely. Much about this beautiful story just doesn't match reality. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed this film. Like I said, it's a real life fairytale. Enjoy it for what it represents, and the potential happy ending it offers those in a similar situation: two charismatic and gorgeous widows with no flaws and five perfectly adjusted children...

    A True Story

    I was intrigued once I realized this movie was based on a true story. You cannot go wrong with Lacey Chabert and Warren Christie's acting. Not only does the story being tears, it's their superb acting that makes it believable and draws you in. Worth watching.

    Love this movie!

    I wish they'd air it more. Watching it tonight - haven't seen it for a couple of years. It's a good family movie. It studies how people can help each other in sad circumstances. How kiss can help each other heal. The camaraderie...

    In circumstances that involve death, people come together and find some peace - while still remembering the ones gone.

    Such a touching movie...

    So good...I cried like a baby.

    This was a real emotional roller coaster, filled with so many hard life lessons...like why do other people always think they know what's best for you? And why do others have trouble watching people be happy.

    This was based on a true life Brady bunch like story.

    It was beautiful to watch these two grieving families come together and support one another. I appreciated without any outside influences, that the family together was happy.

      Epilogue: "The Spehns and the Kells are now one happy family living in Rochester Michigan. In 2007, Michael and Gina Spehn created the New Day Foundation for Families, a non profit serving families affected by cancer."
    • Goofs
      The double rainbow seen at the lake is not how a real double rainbow looks. The image shown is just one rainbow imposed above another rainbow, with both having the same order of colors. In a true double rainbow, the bottom rainbow will have red at the top and blue at the bottom, the second rainbow will have the color orders reversed, as the second rainbow is a reflection of the first rainbow.

      Gina Kell: What?

      Michael Spehn: [Points to a double rainbow] Right there. That sign you were looking for.
