    It’s sad when elderly people are considered an outcast in society. I understand many need assistance. This is a beautiful movie with my favorite actress Jean Simmons. This movie moves me to tears. Such beautiful, sweet, and loving moments.❤

      Yes I agree with you consider an out cast ,I was running a 3bedroom he’s really lge garden decorating doing hairdressing for friends working few hours a wk mostly laundry’s cooking for an elderly man after he been in car accident babysitting over 10 babies not all at once having grandkids over in Holidays .
      Then I had a stroke and within a few weeks I’m put in a ward about 8 of us , looking around after coming look over the blanket they were all lied flat on their backs and few days being fed by tube and the other tube things ,I had to get out. Home and my own bed but there was a lge commode next to me 62 years young, I’m still in bed for the thanks of the drs taking my pain pills away and a few others just gone ,I as young person now I’m the old lady in that hse an outcast all through COVID I didn’t see a face I couldn’t finish training my pup she didn’t like the smell of the nurses and didn’t want to met her so she’s frightened of anyone now and I’m old old old I’m sorry be your turn too plan for it and LIVE NOW WHILE YOU CAN

      People are considered AN outcast? Does that sound grammatically correct to you? People is plural. An outcast is singular. Please try to sound literate.

      Katrinakitty, l lost my beloved soul mate in 1999. We used to watch the movie Through The Shadow lands with Joss about the true love story of C. S. lewis, who is played by this remarkable actor. I recommend it, but have your tissue box at hand--exquisitely moving about true love and loss. My husband and l watched it often...❤

    I just found this movie and love it. This is how movies (TV or large screen) used to be made. No foul language needed or graphic sex scenes. Just a sweet story done by two fantastic actors who had true chemistry. I was glad to see it provided here, but one important scene has not been included in this copy. The two main characters have a plot building scene on a tour bus that is missing. Freeve has the entire movie (except for the darn commercials you watch so much you can recite them by the 5th viewing)

    • @Lyn4817
      @Lyn4817 2 месяца назад

      ​@@eguirald I seriously doubt the younger generations would appreciate movies of this calibre. They were both wonderful actors, I always loved and still do love all the movies with actors born in the late 20s and through the Golden Years. They all had presence that we no longer see in most movies. The Movie Studios definitely could pick the cream of the crop back in the day of when acting was heart felt and they took their profession seriously, from the heart.
      My parents met when they both worked in the Cinema, my father was an usher while my mother worked in the Kiosk. Mother had a wonderful voice and performed in Musical Comedies and later in life she enjoyed acting in some plays. My father an electrician by trade, would help with building sets and doing lighting. Being an only child, I grew up literally in theatres, with my debut on stage at age 5. So I was always in love with the Golden Oldies movies. Deanna Durbin had a wonderful voice and presence on film. I also adored Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, along with all his many dance partners. When my parents toured America, she purchased a set of Rita Hayworth eyelashes from a Studio back in the 70s.
      It was wonderful growing up with parents involved in theatre. I was so fortunate that I was never left with a babysitter. I went everywhere with my parents. My first paid job was as a Floodlight Operator front of house for the National Ballet in my country, at age ten. For some reason I was never tired for school. I was lucky enough to play opposite my mother in Belle of New York with her as Cora Anoelique ...the Queen of Comic Opera and I played her understudy Pansy Pinns. My mother had such a wonderfully strong soprano voice, so strong that it was intimidating for me being a mezzo - soprano, singing a duet with her. All while my father was front of house, spotlighting us. I even met my husband while in the theatre, rehearsing the musical Chu Chin Chow. It's lovely at 71 years old, have so many wonderful and unique memories and having lived such a full life. Sorry to bore you with my reminiscing.
      Needless to say, I have always been tied up in theatre until I was 32, as my husband and I moved to an outback regional town and I ended up pursuit my other passions in life, Dressmaking and Communications.

Not what they nowadays call love which involves just the physical but to love in a way that fills your whole being. After being on my own for 21 years now, I'm still hoping for my soulmate. And if it doesn't, I won't fill my life with less, then I'd rather stay alone until I am no more.

Its all in Gods hands now, and I am looking forward to spending how ever many months or years that I have left here in peace with the fact that God does truely live amongst us. I have made this journey before and successfully completed it. I am positive the outcome will be a positive, healthy one. I just went to put my hand thru my hair and alas, its all falling out now. If loosing my hair is the outcome I couldnt care less. Its love, not your appearance that matters. This movie brought that to life for me😊. God bless us all❤

    O how I enjoyed watching this movie. Thankfully there was no filth or lust or foolishness but just a mature relationship, and pure love between a man and woman. A rare and entertaining film. You would be hard pressed today to find a decent featured film even close to this one.

    It's not the romantic love issue of this film that appeals to me but the promise that a purpose in life can be found at any age which is such a positive and uplifting truth. Fantastic performances too of course by Joss Ackland and Jean Simmons.

    Gentle, beautiful, touching. The acting is flawless. Would we could clone a movie character and replace every taxi driver in the world with this prime example of a humorous, intelligent, kind and thoughtful person - on second thoughts, strike “taxi driver” replace with “every person”

    Many thanks from us, too. Have been trying to find a copy for ages. My partner noticed a missing scene just before the sequence at St Michael's Mount. Presumably this was cut when Hallmark played it.

      @ria1636 5 месяцев назад +3

      Mick Jagger was born in 1943, Joss Ackland in 1928, Jean Simmons in 1929, so they were both older than Mick Jagger. Joss and Jean were not my definition of elderly being in their sixties, although they looked much older. Great actors. RIP
