Chris O This might be the saddest movie ever made. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Very touching indeed. Swollen eyes. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Why has this not been digitized yet? I want on dvd or live streaming. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Extremely well-acted, beautifully shot, touching film about family, loss, and connection. Heartbreaking and very satisfying. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member A real tearjerker. If you don't feel utterly terrible for the little boy by the middle of it, you don't have a heart. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member I literally had to go get a box of kleenex, I havent seen a movie that can make me cry more than these one Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
