Okay, I know. I'm an author. I do reviews of books, not movies. But today, I'm making an exception. First, let me explain, why this movie out of all of the movies in the world. It's about adoption, finding one's birth family, and every emotional twist and turn involved. And I went with my sister. Which in itself is a rather big deal. We've known each other for less than a year, yeah, I know that sounds odd. However, I was adopted, thus, it's only recently I've connected with a small part of my birth family. So I could relate to this movie, it felt like the storyline was my life in a way. There were so many places I found myself muttering, "I feel that way", "I've done that", "I've said that", or "I've heard that from so and so". And being there with my sister made the movie even more special. Having a few more moments with her are always a blessing since we've missed out on so much.
Beyond that, I feel this is a movie anyone can relate to. More people need to understand what a beautiful gift adoption is. And how family can be created by choosing to accept someone else's child as one's own. Yet this doesn't mean that the parents who give up the child are forgotten, hated, or ignored. No, far from it. We adopted children often want to find that 'missing piece', that connection to where we came from. To hear the story of 'why'. But this journey isn't easy, it's filled with emotional landmines for everyone involved. And I love how this movie showed every angle of this very complicated puzzle - birth mother, birth father, adopted parents, and the child now eighteen at the heart of it all.
Highly recommend this movie!
