5 out of 5 stars Triumph, even when much seems to have gone wrong . . ........2007-06-20

There are a number of very interesting issues presented in this movie. The first one is the question of what to do when a girl is raped and becomes pregnant. Abortion? If so, the world would have missed the great Gospel/jazz singer, Mahilia Jackson. In this case, it is a cross-racial rape. Barbara Ann's mother felt that giving her daughter up to be adopted by a black family would make it easier for the innocent infant. Then, social services screwed up and 'forgot' about Barbara Ann until she was seven years old, and bonded with a very loving - indeed, saintly - foster mother. So, she was jerked out of the only family she knew and loved to be sent half way across the country to a white Liberal, yuppie couple who seemed to want a child more for 'political correctness' reasons than genuine love and understanding of the child's needs.

One aspect that my wife and I especially appreciated was that the Catholic faith of Barbara Ann's birth family was shown to be very important to them, and it was treated with great respect. Her birth mom was shown to pray before finally making the call that would eventually reunite her with the girl she'd given up years before. Take note, also, that the first time Barbara Ann smiled after leaving her foster mother was also in a Protestant African American church, where a wonderful young teen boy noticed her. They eventually graduated from school, married and had five children!

This is the true story of the life of a little girl who seemed to be nearly irrelevant to the needs of the social system. Every family with adopted children will not want to miss this movie. It is one that will, several times, raise a lump in your throat if you have any empathy for children. Even more important, it is a story of the triumph of the human spirit that will leave you feeling happy you spent the time to watch it!

5 out of 5 stars Nicely Done!!!.......2007-06-05

This is a nicely done film about an adopted daughter with a severe medical condition forcing to search for her biological mother!!It's well worth watching!!

          Product Description

          Brand new, factory sealed, fully licensed DVD manufactured in Brazil. NTSC format. Playable on any North American DVD player. High quality full screen color image. Original English dialog with optional subtitles in Portuguese. Portuguese subtitles do not appear unless turned on and they can be easily turned off. The following review appears in Amazon for the VHS edition: "A biography of Sigmund Romberg, the musical and operetta composer. Anything which features his music must have some good features, but this is superlative all the way around. Jose Ferrer is charming as Rommie, Merle Oberon gives a nice performance as his love interest, and the list of cameos is starry, with Rosemary Clooney shining in one number and the great operatice soprano Helen Traubel singing "Softly" as it must be, a touching plea full of torment, angst, and ultimately acceptance. Beautiful technicolor, good direction. Very amusing, filled with some of the best songs ever written, and beautifully performed and captured on film."

          While the movie was good with wonderful music, the colors tended to bleed, especially the reds. I question the "high Quality Import Edition." Too bad whoever transfers these old movies to DVD can't do a better job sometimes.
