What I really like about this film


CONTAINS SPOILERS

******************************************************************************

The thing that really captures me about this film is how a mother's love is able to continue over two lifetimes.

It is so very beautiful that Mary Sutton can come back in a later life as Jenny Cole, who remembers the past and finds her children again while they are still alive, re-unite them, and to heal the wounds left in Sonny, her most adored child.

I wish this could happen in real life, where mothers or fathers (or both) who loved their children but left prematurely are allowed to come back, to continue their love and to look after their children again in a later lifetime just like in this film.

Imagine how much more wonderful and beautiful our world could be if we can all be 'Yesterday's Children'.

Kind regards

It does happen in real life, Bill. I suspect that is where the idea came from.
