Bob Stebbins is an Idiot

I love and adore this movie, but the fool who wrote the Storyline on the main page got so many major plot points WRONG.

Bernadette (Parillaud) is FRENCH, not Irish. The troop ship found her after they left France, they went to Ireland next before the journey back to the USA.

Dillon's character gave Frankie the nickname Frankie Starlight, not Byrne. Byrne taught Frankie about the stars and it was through Byrne's daughter that Frankie's religion became "Beauty."

This is an amazing movie and I am still upset that it has never been released on DVD. I still have my VHS though when I need a dose of brilliant story-telling and acting.
