Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Great, great movie, another awesome tearjerker! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Beautifully acted, truly heartwarming and moving true life story of courage and a family bond that can't be broken by adversity. The ending is something that stays with you always.
