Totally choked up when...


Ethel took Rory (her's and Bobby's 11th child) to his grave and told her she would never know what a great man her father was. That's when I totally lost it.

There were a lot of emotional moments in this movie. I liked it better than A Woman named Jackie in some aspects because this movie showed the touching relationship between Jack and Jackie once they were married. In A Woman named Jackie it seemed that the focus was on the negative relationships she had with Jack, her father, her mother, and Ari. I thought it was heartbreaking when Ted continually pushed Joan away when Jack died and he left her there when she wanted to be with him and when she won the campaign for her after his plane crash and he's celebrating with the guys while Joan is cleaning up. I lost it when Joe broke down when Jackie handed him Jack's flag and while watching the funerals of Jack and Bobby, especially after John John saluted his father. This movie was so much softer than the other one.
