    • Trivia
      The young Otto is played by Truman Hanks, Tom's son, who was 26 years old during principal photography.
    • Goofs
      When the younger Otto is seen by a doctor and denied military service, the chest x-ray does not show an enlarged heart, as can be seen in cardiomyopathy, but a massive tumor in the upper part of the left lung.
    • Quotes

      Otto Anderson: [to Marisol] You have given birth to two children. Soon it will be three. You have come here from a country very far away. You learned a new language, you got yourself an education and a nitwit husband and you are holding that family together. You will have no problem learning how to drive. My god, the world is full of complete idiots who have managed to figure it out, and you are not a complete idiot. So, cluch, shift, gas, drive.

    This has NO right, making me cry.

    While I have seen thousands of hours worth of motion pictures, I have only seen a few that have brought me to tears. I've done multiple tours in the Middle East, I've been in very emotional situations with families, but only a few movies have made me cry. This was a movie I saw, but never found appealing as I'm not the fondest of dramas, but I took the gamble. Within the first 36 minutes, I saw scenes i could relate to, scenes where I've been in those shoes and I had to have a box of tissues avilable. I had to take a few moments and I catch my breath, because this movie was extremely emotional to me, which doesn't happen often. If you need to take a moment and reflect and your own life, take a couple hours, and watch this.
