What a wonderful movie!

I've just watched this on hallmark channel and I have to say, the movie had me bawling like a baby. It has been years since a movie touched me so deeply, made me think of mortality, lost loved ones, and my own existence and the people I've known. Great great movie

I just saw it on Hallmark also. It really is a wonderful movie with great actors. Jon Voight is a much better actor that that daughter of his (Angelina Jolie)!!

I saw this when it was first on and I thought the same thing...What a GREAT Movie. Some take things so seriously and ask...Why five people" is it this or that and what did it mean? ETC. I knew it was a fiction movie but it's message was so wonderful. How we have an affect on other people...People we meet only in passing...and we may never know how we touched their lives. Makes one really think about how to treat others. I loved it. It certainly made me more aware of how I treated others. Lots of food for thought.

It definitely should be rated higher.

Sorry for being off-topic but WOW I had NO idea Jon Voight was Jolie's daddy. XD

I agree, great movie. A friend of mine shown me this movie, and i was just taken aback with awe. we just stared at each other in silence after the movie was over. Real food for thought.
