Has anyone else felt this movie had a profound effect on them? I did.

I went to this movie sponsered by the Tear Fund last night, one of my main reasons being that the cost of the ticket all went to charity and I to be honest knew only a little about mother Teresa. But this movie was beautiful.
I wasn't looking at the movie it as a film study, because if I was I'm sure I would have found flaws. But I found it to be instead an image straight from the streets of poverty in a third wold country.
I've seen it. I've lived in China for 2 and a half years and my parents worked as missionarys in an orphanage and a college.
This movie brought back all that. People walk past beggars, the sick - young and old- with barley any notice, but the corrage and mercy for mother Teresa and her fellow catholics to take in these dirty people and give them hope is an amazing thing.

I haven't really cried in a movie for many many years, not even for the great movie- Grave of the Fireflies. I felt the reality of what christ went through in The Passion and I can say it effected me....
But this movie changed me.

I caught myself crying so many times, even with my friends around, and at one piont i almost burst into tears and could easily have done if I hadn't caught myself. I didn't care though. Most of the audiance left the cinema with red eyes.

The person's life displayed here is a life we should all look to for wisdom, mercy and strength. I have recomended this movie to all I have talked to today and recommend it to you. It is a powerful vision of a humble lady's life. And she doesn't take any credit for it.

Go and see it.
