RUclips tells me that this film is not available in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Please tell me in which country you are watching it. And how you like this film.
What a great movie. We have a 11 year old who came to us as a foster child, her mother too was drug addict and homeless. Our princess came three years after we took her older sister and brother. This reminded me of how my husband cried with this, then, one year old as she was going through drug withdrawals. He held her rigid little body for hours as they both cried. Today, my husband is the only dad she knows and their bond is beyond believe. Her mother, now drug free for 10 years and her two siblings are still living with us. Her two older siblings just graduated grade 12 and thus begins a new journey as young adults with us supporting them all the way. ❤
What about the blood mother she has rights you know. When these children mature and start to have their own children. They will see the importance of the bloodline. Mark Gods words.😊
@@carolynreid2108hopefully their blood momma appreciates that someone else raised their babies to adulthood. And hopefully they are still able to have a relationship with their birth children and future grandchildren xx
Your story is confusing. Did you know her before she was eleven, as your story says your husband held her at one during her drug withdrawals. Please reread your story and clarify for your readers.
very well said! he was the best dad, he saved that babies life. i cant believe the mom! i'm glad the grandparents worked with John so he could see the little girl he saved and raised again! he did what he thought was best, bc her own mom tried to kill her own baby if he wasn't in the woods then that little girl would have drowned to death! great movie watching from america!
Australia. Wow this movie was so moving for me. So sad and also so inspiring, What a shock for the grandfather to find out what his daughter had done. The best movie all around for so many reasons. so much compassion
@@caroldonaldson5936 It said, “Watch the movie before reading on here.” It didn’t say No Spoilers as people were probably going to discuss the movie. I loved the movie but would have had a different ending.
What an exceptional story of Hope and Love coming abundantly from a source we would never imagine. that is God’s kind of love… Yes, tears of sadness then turned to joy. I’m glad I watched this, kept scrolling past for awhile now. No regrets, only holding onto dreams, praying that no matter our age, they would come true! 🙏
WATCH THIS! One of the best drama movies I've watched on RUclips. Tear-jerker and the characters' acting are very convincing, very good esp the father, the kid and the grandfather. I cried in some scenes near the ending reminds me of my late father. I'm from the Philippines. Thank Ü for sharing.
Exceptional movie. From UK. Recently moved here from 34 yrs in France. Wonderful acting from everyone. Intriguing plot. Kept me glued to the screen and as everyone else, cried at the end. I did think they were going to give the child back to the father........quite a turn up at the end. Thank you so much for posting, thank you. Beautiful.
The little girl is absolutely priceless. She's so adorable and reminds me of my daughter. The power our daughters have over us, dads. She's so strong and independent. Love it.
I'm still a Daddy's girl at the age of 64 yrs old and I always will be because I was actually always close to him starting at a very young age. Even though my Daddy's passed away 😢 😪 😔 and went to be with our Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ and The Holy Sprit. 🙌 🙏 ❤️ 💔 I'm sad 😔 but happy too Becky now he's in no more pain. 😢
Yeaaa, pleased to meet you I live in California as well with my children and we have a RUclips channel as well so please come stop by, comment, and subscribe!
Exceptional movie, amazing cast, excellent actors, one of the best movies I have seen in a long time!!! You must watch, it's so good...the plot was so original, cried, I cried and cried some more! USA
What a sad but a Beautiful movie ❤ a man who was planning to commit suicide was saved by this miracle.... 🙏🙏🙏👣❤ ... and He took care of this miracle child with all his life 😢❤🙏 it is said that the creation works in such mysterious ways 🙏🙏🙏 thank you soo much for sharing this movie 😢❤

Yes, this movie is really as good as all the comments say it is! A very powerful story. Outstanding acting, too. I'm a fan of Ted Levine and Maggie E. Jones, and they were GREAT in this.
I was choking with grief as the father had to say goodbye to her and I cried again when I saw the face of the grandfather as he watched them reunite and hugging. He looked like a very nice man . Everything worked out in the end. This shows what drugs can make people turn into. If there is a devil, he created drugs . The grandfather played Adrian Monk's chief of police and also the crazy pervert who wanted to be a woman in Silence of the Lambs ! I'm in Miami, Florida, USA.
In regard to your comment about The devil. He is most certainly real But invisible. The truth. Is God is love, And the opposite of that is hate. People do not want to face the reality Of sin, Which Jesus Talk about. Heaven is real and so is Hell. The bible teaches you must be born again spiritually. Which simply means to receive Jesus christas. Your savior and Lord which is taught in the Bible. As your salvation. Because jesus christ is the only way, He alone is eternal life. And nobody is sinless, Except God. I asked that you take this message message seriously.. God has given you the will to choose, Eternal life or eternal death. May god help you choose Eternal life
This Marine Veteran thought he was saving the girl’s life from drowning but girl ended up saving him from committing suicide in the middle of digging his own grave

Sure wish this movie had closed captions for all of us hearing challenged folks. But the visual and what can be heard and understood point to an excellent and well acted out story line. Viewing in south coastal Texas with many thanks.
Very moving and tender- but it reveals the Human 'way' , the 'right' way, to do things just is not always right. It exposes the many anomalies, that we are told are 'normal', are in fact inhumane. I think the era has done enough for now, and history will never repeat such again. It is fortunate that we are shifting in our consciousness, enough now to find better ways to treat each other.I am watching this movie in New Zealand.Thank You for this film.
South Carolina. Very plaubisible story and great acting! The little girl hooked me from the beginning and I couldn't stop watching. Little slow at the beginning but as the details emerged it kept me guessing right up to the end. Bring tissues!! It does leave me with hope but I want to see the sequel now!😢 Is the little girl in any other movies??
Here's the Wikipedia page on her (for what it's worth) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maggie_Elizabeth_Jones She's got a few films and some television "under her belt". She may currently be focusing on her studies.
I love the Christian theme. The redemption hopefully of the daughter, Katy is beautiful girl, rescued from death. You can't choose your family, he found family in the little one. The man rescued the little one. Beautiful ❤😊Jess xx
I saw this movie already xxx times before and I still can't stop. I'm searching for this movie every year and watch it like it is my first time. It's my favorite movie.
I’m not sure how you can say the grandfather is so great. Look how he beat up that guy. He was completely tactless in how he handled those situations some of the time. Taking the child’s mother and grandmother to the hospital to meet her after she’s been through that Examination, that was traumatic for the child. Nobody apologised for that. Then he went to the church while the service was on to take his daughter out of there, he could’ve waited. It was just nasty. if he behaved to his daughter like that when she was young, that explains why she was a drug addict. It’s a familiar story, a father who is over critical, expecting perfection, especially if they’re in the police. We all have to face up to ourselves, look at our own behaviour, and stop blaming other people for our own shortcomings . So this movie was made 10 years back, I hope there is more genuine love and compassion in the world now.
@@francescabaylin5551 i agreed WHOLEHEARTEDLY!!! ..... I respected his PASSION. But, we ave to learn to differentiate between the GOD THING VS GOOD THING. That was SOOOOO embarassin in d house of the LORD..... NO REVERENCEEEEEE n to make it WORST infront of a WHOLE CONGREGATION. It could have handled better. A key point u highlighted,was his parenting, u can tell he ave NEVA trusted her words it was her mom correcting ALL his error. Another "nedge my teeth mo" wen he caught up with the man in the wood, while diggin, he wasn't listenin at all wat he was saying about Nathalie/ katieee... Emotions, got d BEST of him, in which he pulled his weapon. I wonder, WHY he's even on d case based on his connection to NATALIE. Nonetheless, i DO FATHOM y he acted in certain aspect, But d church scene was DISGRACEFUL not once but 3 times!!!???? She already went through dat SHAME n GUILT n him re-openin dat wound in dat fashion was SAD!!
I feel so sad for the little girl. Finally the man she knows and loves as her father doesn't have to hide. He can find a job and rent a place. He loves her like a good father loves his daughter. He expllained they rescued each other. But no, they don't consider this father and daughter could stay together. Instead of living with him and visit her grandparents they turned it around. Sad, very sad.
Thank you for your comment. I uploaded this film for everyone because I love this film. Yes, love is the right word. I had to share it. I think this is the best possible ending and at the same time the best possible continuation of this special family story. I am sure you will find it out. It is the best possible outcome for everyone involved.
@@Southamericangirl42 No, that is not true. She has absolutely loving grandparents. And her father was NOT taken away from her. I am sure you will find, as I have and many others, that this is absolutely the best solution, the right solution. And that is what makes the film so special.
Whoa.... that was really really hard and so tragic! Well written and well acted, but at least they allowed for a connection between the 2 so the ending wasn't totally horrible.... he will always be her Daddy. 😢
I almost 45:23 did not comment on this movie, but I have put it on hold because of life’s circumstances ! I will get back to it for sure! Let y’all know what I think later!! Greetings from south east Alabama USA ☮️❤️
let's not blame the man who saved that little child, because her mother happens to be the daughter of a police officer. after all if it was not for him, that child would have been dead..............
A very god movie, I cried so much in the end, why didn't they arrange shared cusrody with the dad and the grandparents? The dad deserved to be a regular part of her life and she deserved it too. And I'm seeing it in Finland🇫🇮
SPOILER . . . IMO Let’s hope that grandpa doesn’t raise another drug addict daughter like the one one he had. If little girls dad had money, could fight for custody and get some custody with a good attorney. Ripping this child from her dad was very selfish, and not in child’s best interest. Shared Visitation could have been arranged. Sheriff has temper and showed his lack of self control in assaulting his other soldier. And looks like he is one in control.
Thank you for posting this movie... Such a broken world...rather than living with "our truth", lies forge, shame develops, lives are further broken...and why people need to OWN UP TO THEIR WRONGS...there is forgiveness...but people choose to live in the dark instead. How will people heal?, they will only heal when people OWN THEIR RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY for THEIR ACTIONS, and stop BLAMING OTHERS FOR THEIR GUILT and SHAME! JESUS is the ANSWER...either way, blaming or taking initiative for RESPONSIBILITY, ALL WILL BE EXPOSED EVENTUALLY...I thank GOD for doing this...although this CASE is just a "movie"...this is ALSO a REALITY. People try to HIDE their WRONGS...BUT KNOW THIS...EVENTUALLY, THEY AND ALL WRONGS WILL BE BROUGHT TO THE LIGHT, BROUGHT OUT IN PUBLIC FOR ALL TO SEE. I am GRATEFUL to GOD FOR HIS JUSTICE...HIS TRUTH... What is done before HIM, WILL BE MADE MANIFEST! GOOD OR BAD! No one is perfect, but we all have a CHOICE to do what is RIGHT...or continue to do WRONG! I hope people CHOOSE to do what is RIGHT...and come to the PLACE OF FORGIVENESS NOW, in this lifetime, before its too late, we don't hold tomorrow, REDEEM THE TIME NOW! AMEN!
A good movie. But sad ending. Wish him and that lady could have gotten married and maybe adopted Katie. She still would be able to see her grandparents and be with the only Daddy she knew and loved her.
That would be too cheesy, too kitschy. That would be like other films. Too happy end. Spoiler: The grandparents would still not have accepted the adoption of their granddaughter by the man and his new wife, and the grandparents would have been right in that regard, and they would have won in court, and rightly so: it would have been right in any case to give the girl to the grandparents. Loving grandparents with an excellent sense of responsibility. Anything else is pure fantasy and would simply not be right. You can't have a child by just taking it. John and Katie came to Kaya as customers, and later she acted as a friend. She played a very good role in Katie's life. But you can't always expect a love relationship and marriage when adults meet. That's too easy. She has a restaurant with employees, he is a veteran with a completely different life, travelling around in an RV, and now in a red car. You can expect from them respect for each other, but certainly not marriage and the common adoption of a child stolen by him. That is just not realistic. Yes, he clearly loves the girl like a daughter. And that will most certainly last forever. It is comparable to many fathers who continue to take good care of their children even though they can't live with them right now. And that is realistic. That is how life goes. This film is actually different. It is closer to life than other films. It describes human communication as it could actually take place in such situations. And that is what is special about it. It is a very special, very realistic film. I love this film. I love this story. I love these people. They are so human. My English is the English of a German. I am from Germany. The Google Translator helps me.
wow i cried at the end of this movie.i really thought the grandparents would of allowed them to keep in touch.i felt sorry for them both.😪yaaa they will still see each other yaaa!!!
we need people like you to help when need if everyone could wouldn't be so much happier compassion is about caring for each other know matter what it such l hard thing to give up drugs you need help you whole to strengthen your self in the process sorry the children suffer but that is why we need to help each other more just by giving children a stronger home 🏡 and family that was willing to stay the together god bless everyone
Ungrateful Grandfather!! If John had not picked her up, the child would have been dead!!! They should have be Thanking him and letting Katie decide whom to be with!
If you save a girl's life, it doesn't mean that the girl is yours from then on. I have explained it elsewhere: The grandfather is doing everything right - for many reasons. In fact, he is a wonderful grandfather. What he organizes is the best for the girl for many reasons.
Wonderful movie a reminder that we have all sinned fall short glory of God And only Jesus can save us and forgive us if we ask him thank you for this beautiful movie. We all don’t have every one. his word says that he sets the lonely in families and I know that that’s true. I’ve lived it my entire life from kind special people who are like mother‘s father‘s grandparents siblings I never had and they were very special thank you Lord for kind people
Wonderful movie thank you I really enjoyed it really brings out your feelings. If you have any glad the ending was positive. Hope everyone who watches this movie finds a thread of themselves that they may come to see that we each need one another. We are not an island.
For those who have already watched the movie, or at least part of it (am about in the middle). I do not like the police chief to hit that guy. Especially after he said I'm sorry it was an accident. He should not handle the case if he cannot manage his personal emotions. Needed to get that out. Disturbs me again and again, this vengeance thing.
On a legal level, he could lose his job for this. But it's about his own daughter and granddaughter! Emotionally, his outburst is 100 percent understandable and justified. He is human!
Came across this movie by accident. As I was watching it, it seemed familiar though I’ve never seen this movie before. I remembered that I read this book they based this movie from. For the most part they stayed close to the book June Bug
Yes, watched from Kenya! Wasn't sure at 1st but the comments are helpful so thought I'd add my support. Emotional at the end. Seeing war vets in the hospital is triggering because I don't coddle sickness Jesus already paid for. Otherwise quite the story!

I’m not sure how you can say the grandfather is so great. Look how he beat up that guy. He was completely tactless in how he handled those situations some of the time.

Then he went to the church while the service was on to take his daughter out of there, he could’ve waited. It was just nasty. if he behaved to his daughter like that when she was young, that explains why she was a drug addict.
It’s a familiar story, a father who is over critical, expecting perfection, especially if they’re in the police.
We all have to face up to ourselves, look at our own behaviour, and stop blaming other people for our own shortcomings . So this movie was made 10 years back, I hope there is more genuine love and compassion in the world now.

A key point u highlighted,was his parenting, u can tell he ave NEVA trusted her words it was her mom correcting ALL his error. Another "nedge my teeth mo" wen he caught up with the man in the wood, while diggin, he wasn't listenin at all wat he was saying about Nathalie/ katieee... Emotions, got d BEST of him, in which he pulled his weapon. I wonder, WHY he's even on d case based on his connection to NATALIE. Nonetheless, i DO FATHOM y he acted in certain aspect, But d church scene was DISGRACEFUL not once but 3 times!!!???? She already went through dat SHAME n GUILT n him re-openin dat wound in dat fashion was SAD!!
Australia! Loved this movie
One of the best movies I have seen in a while. Did not expect it all and certainly did not see where is was going. Prepare to be surprised.
Spain.
Thanks for sharing this great movie!
Very touching movie. Thank you. Yes, GOD can und want forgive us everything if we truly repent ... that's the GRACE
It's true, I felt His grace many many times during my life.
😮😢❤🙏One of those movies you never want to end. 🌹✝️ Thank you. Downloaded it barely halfway in.
Great story, shocking twist, fine ending. 👍 Shared.😢💕
North East England. A very powerful movie. The story was captivating and the acting, scenery etc was very good.
I feel so sad for the little girl. Finally the man she knows and loves as her father doesn't have to hide. He can find a job and rent a place. He loves her like a good father loves his daughter. He expllained they rescued each other. But no, they don't consider this father and daughter could stay together. Instead of living with him and visit her grandparents they turned it around. Sad, very sad.
Thank you for your comment.
I uploaded this film for everyone because I love this film. Yes, love is the right word. I had to share it.
I think this is the best possible ending and at the same time the best possible continuation of this special family story. I am sure you will find it out. It is the best possible outcome for everyone involved.
@user-uf3ed7fu1h
I agree with you. The only love she ever knew was taken from her.
@@Southamericangirl42 No, that is not true. She has absolutely loving grandparents. And her father was NOT taken away from her.
I am sure you will find, as I have and many others, that this is absolutely the best solution, the right solution. And that is what makes the film so special.
Namibia,
What a beautifull movie!!! Tears !! And so good actors !!!
Movies can be beautiful with no sex, no cursing, no violence, no shooting!
Whoa.... that was really really hard and so tragic! Well written and well acted, but at least they allowed for a connection between the 2 so the ending wasn't totally horrible.... he will always be her Daddy. 😢

What a truly great heartfelt film! Wonderful actors esp Ted Levine who is awesome in everything he does. Watching from Santa Rosa, California. 💐
I almost 45:23 did not comment on this movie, but I have put it on hold because of life’s circumstances ! I will get back to it for sure! Let y’all know what I think later!! Greetings from south east Alabama USA ☮️❤️
What a beautiful movie! Thanks for sharing. ❤
This movie just crush my heart😢😅but I'm glad she recovered her life with the grandparents .
Beautiful
So glad I found this! It is an incredible drama.
Fantastic movie...great storyline...acting was also outstanding, especially the little girl...❤
This movie was so good and so sad and happy. I’m glad it had a good ending 😢
let's not blame the man who saved that little child, because her mother happens to be the daughter of a police officer. after all if it was not for him, that child would have been dead..............
How do we ever thank God's our foster Parent except as caring for others unto Him.
A very god movie, I cried so much in the end, why didn't they arrange shared cusrody with the dad and the grandparents? The dad deserved to be a regular part of her life and she deserved it too. And I'm seeing it in Finland🇫🇮
At the very end they made arrangements for her dad to visit her regularly! They just wanted her to get settled first with her grandparents
@@user-ln6pu7kq9j I know,and thank God for that, but visiting isn't the same as regularly having her in his home for longer times!
Yes they have , it pains me much
Watched it until the end..Glad the writers didn’t leave me hanging..Good movie!
USA, EXCELLENT, POWERFUL, AWESOME, AND GOD CENTERED!! THANK YOU FOR THIS MOVIE!!
This is a beautiful, sad, heart felt movie from beginning to end.
Best movie I've seen in a very long time. True love story.
Just as brilliant as the first time. Many thanks
What a great story full of love heartbreaking .thx for upload Erica from South Africa withove
It was a beautiful movie. Very touching. Good moral in it. Thank you for sharing it. The LORD bless you. Shalom

IMO
Let’s hope that grandpa doesn’t raise another drug addict daughter like the one one he had. If little girls dad had money, could fight for custody and get some custody with a good attorney. Ripping this child from her dad was very selfish, and not in child’s best interest. Shared Visitation could have been arranged. Sheriff has temper and showed his lack of self control in assaulting his other soldier. And looks like he is one in control.
Thank you for posting this movie...
Such a broken world...rather than living with "our truth", lies forge, shame develops, lives are further broken...and why people need to OWN UP TO THEIR WRONGS...there is forgiveness...but people choose to live in the dark instead. How will people heal?, they will only heal when people OWN THEIR RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY for THEIR ACTIONS, and stop BLAMING OTHERS FOR THEIR GUILT and SHAME!
JESUS is the ANSWER...either way, blaming or taking initiative for RESPONSIBILITY, ALL WILL BE EXPOSED EVENTUALLY...I thank GOD for doing this...although this CASE is just a "movie"...this is ALSO a REALITY.
People try to HIDE their WRONGS...BUT KNOW THIS...EVENTUALLY, THEY AND ALL WRONGS WILL BE BROUGHT TO THE LIGHT, BROUGHT OUT IN PUBLIC FOR ALL TO SEE. I am GRATEFUL to GOD FOR HIS JUSTICE...HIS TRUTH...
What is done before HIM, WILL BE MADE MANIFEST! GOOD OR BAD!
No one is perfect, but we all have a CHOICE to do what is RIGHT...or continue to do WRONG!
I hope people CHOOSE to do what is RIGHT...and come to the PLACE OF FORGIVENESS NOW, in this lifetime, before its too late, we don't hold tomorrow, REDEEM THE TIME NOW!
AMEN!
What a movie! Great watch and I’m glad the ending didn’t disappoint me
Great movie! The ending made me cry a lot! Greetings from Portugal 🇵🇹🙌
U.S. - What a sad and beautiful story. Very good movie!
One of the best movies I've ever watched. Amazing and God is good.
thanks for posting, Quebec
A good movie. But sad ending. Wish him and that lady could have gotten married and maybe adopted Katie. She still would be able to see her grandparents and be with the only Daddy she knew and loved her.
That would be too cheesy, too kitschy. That would be like other films. Too happy end.
Spoiler:
The grandparents would still not have accepted the adoption of their granddaughter by the man and his new wife, and the grandparents would have been right in that regard, and they would have won in court, and rightly so: it would have been right in any case to give the girl to the grandparents. Loving grandparents with an excellent sense of responsibility.
Anything else is pure fantasy and would simply not be right. You can't have a child by just taking it.
John and Katie came to Kaya as customers, and later she acted as a friend. She played a very good role in Katie's life. But you can't always expect a love relationship and marriage when adults meet. That's too easy. She has a restaurant with employees, he is a veteran with a completely different life, travelling around in an RV, and now in a red car. You can expect from them respect for each other, but certainly not marriage and the common adoption of a child stolen by him. That is just not realistic.
Yes, he clearly loves the girl like a daughter. And that will most certainly last forever. It is comparable to many fathers who continue to take good care of their children even though they can't live with them right now. And that is realistic. That is how life goes.
This film is actually different. It is closer to life than other films. It describes human communication as it could actually take place in such situations. And that is what is special about it. It is a very special, very realistic film.
I love this film. I love this story. I love these people. They are so human.
My English is the English of a German. I am from Germany. The Google Translator helps me.
oh the tears i can't see
wow i cried at the end of this movie.i really thought the grandparents would of allowed them to keep in touch.i felt sorry for them both.😪yaaa they will still see each other yaaa!!!
we need people like you to help when need if everyone could wouldn't be so much happier compassion is about caring for each other know matter what it such l hard thing to give up drugs you need help you whole to strengthen your self in the process sorry the children suffer but that is why we need to help each other more just by giving children a stronger home 🏡 and family that was willing to stay the together god bless everyone
Greetings from Texas, USA🤠
❤️🇺🇲💙
My God!! Such an excellent movie, with amazing memorable characters (actors). THANK YOU, Michael❣️
Ted Levine shines in this movie with a solid supporting cast. This is a real gem.
All actors are great, I think.
@@mkzzzzzz I agree. I feel Levine is underated in general is all.
Ungrateful Grandfather!! If John had not picked her up, the child would have been dead!!! They should have be Thanking him and letting Katie decide whom to be with!
If you save a girl's life, it doesn't mean that the girl is yours from then on.
I have explained it elsewhere: The grandfather is doing everything right - for many reasons. In fact, he is a wonderful grandfather. What he organizes is the best for the girl for many reasons.
Wonderful movie a reminder that we have all sinned fall short glory of God And only Jesus can save us and forgive us if we ask him thank you for this beautiful movie. We all don’t have every one. his word says that he sets the lonely in families and I know that that’s true. I’ve lived it my entire life from kind special people who are like mother‘s father‘s grandparents siblings I never had and they were very special thank you Lord for kind people
Wonderful movie thank you I really enjoyed it really brings out your feelings. If you have any glad the ending was positive. Hope everyone who watches this movie finds a thread of themselves that they may come to see that we each need one another. We are not an island.
For those who have already watched the movie, or at least part of it (am about in the middle).
I do not like the police chief to hit that guy. Especially after he said I'm sorry it was an accident. He should not handle the case if he cannot manage his personal emotions.
Needed to get that out. Disturbs me again and again, this vengeance thing.
On a legal level, he could lose his job for this. But it's about his own daughter and granddaughter! Emotionally, his outburst is 100 percent understandable and justified. He is human!
Beautiful movie!!
Great lesson life lesson 💝
What a lovely movie. I should have watched it to the end before i commented. Huge surprise
Came across this movie by accident. As I was watching it, it seemed familiar though I’ve never seen this movie before. I remembered that I read this book they based this movie from. For the most part they stayed close to the book June Bug
Yes, watched from Kenya! Wasn't sure at 1st but the comments are helpful so thought I'd add my support. Emotional at the end. Seeing war vets in the hospital is triggering because I don't coddle sickness Jesus already paid for. Otherwise quite the story!
Am just reading the comments and it makes me feel please,, love it . watching all the way from Papua New Guinea
Watching from Port Elizabeth, Eastern Cape,.South Africa ..great great movie
