Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.
Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
EverettsinUtah Unfortunately, this kind of revolting behavior(refering to the first husband) happens out there. Those of us lucky ones, who were not brought up that way, should have nothing but heartfelt gratitude towards the great and almighty. You wouldn't be human if you didn't feel for those two boys. The mother can't be at fault for doing what she desperately had to do in order to get her boys out of the hellhole that they were living in. She shouldn't have had to go to that kind of length in order to rescue the innocent victims who she no doubt dearly loved. People like that abusive lunatic, lock them up and throw away the key. I, like most I'd imagine, was emotionally overcome by the part where the two boys, the angry older one in particular, were comforted by their new dad " noone's ever going to hurt you again, I'm your dad now" And this heartwarming and tearjerky scene proves to be the turning point in the family bonding and becoming stronger and determined to get through the ordeal. I think that it was injustice for the mother to spend any more time in jail once she was proven not to be nor pose as any potential threat to society. I am angry as can be at times because of the flaws of our injustice system.
rusher-1 -- of films in which Pamela Reed plays the long-suffering wife or girlfriend. Trouble is, she does it so well, and so compellingly, that she has perhaps been justifiably type-cast. This film was recently shown on "Court TV", of all places, and I must say that Ms. Reed's performance blew me away. She is a disarmingly attractive lady with a broad range of talent, as exemplified in this film by her totally believable transformation from backward West Virginia trailer trash to the wife of a successful L.A. Real Estate executive (before her past finally catches up with her). Were I a successful L.A. Real Estate executive (which I am not), I could easily fall in love with the character Pamela Reed portrays in this film. It is a way more appealing and believable premise than, say, well-heeled business executive Richard Gere falling in love with a street-walker (now where did I see that one???). Ms. Reed probably deserves more recognition than she seems to have received in her career thus far, though her resume would seem to indicate that she has little trouble finding work. I hope to see more of her work in the future.
