Exceptional Cast and Writer.......2006-02-03
If you enjoyed "Foxfire" or "The Dollmaker", you will love this too. If you have seen this already be sure to check the other two I mentioned. Susan Cooper is an outstanding writer to have written such great stories of how people cope with lifes events. Some wonderful and some heartbreaking, we learn to move on and embrace the best of what we have had and lost. Cronyn and Tandy are perfect for their roles and will draw you into this story as though it happened to you. This is one of the best Hallmark has to offer. I watched this and "Foxfire" with my mom a couple years after my dad passed away. I have to say they both had a profound affect on me. They will heighten your appreciation for your parents. I highly recommend it.
Wonderful.......2004-12-13
This was a wonderful family movie. Hume Cronyn and Jessica Tandy worked some magic in this film. A serene kind of familial wonder exists in this picture. You will walk away from this movie feeling good about the good in human kind. The movie shows very creatively that love can live on many years after the death of a loved one, and sometimes enriches ones spirituality. Jessica, you were a very special actress.
I also recommend "Driving Miss Daisy"

The awesome power of love.......2004-09-14
This is quite an exceptional drama that will stay with you for a long time. It stars Hume Cronyn as Sam, a farmer, who's beloved wife of fifty years, Cora, has died. The couple were devoted to each other in life, and Cora's spirit, in the form of a beautiful white dog, returns to look after Sam and help him in his time of grief. The old man is greatly comforted by the dog, whom he alone can see, and as his own health ebbs, he faces his own death with anticipation, for he knows he will see his Cora again.
Was there ever a better acting couple than Jessica Tandy and Hume Cronyn? Their life experiences etched into every line of their gentle faces, and their real love evident in their eyes, their performances bring not only tears, but also a sense of awe for their profound talents. They play simple people with such charisma that you simply cannot take your eyes off of them. The script is guaranteed to tug at your heartstrings and send the hopeful message that death is not necessarily the end for those who truly love. A memorable film; heartily recommended.
One of the most beautiful movies I've ever seen.......2004-06-28
Shortly after celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary, Sam Peek loses his beloved wife Cora to a heart attack.
Told from the perspective of his son James, this heart touching story tells of Sam and his family. One day shortly after Cora's death, a snow white dog shows up on Sam's porch. Sam grudgingly feeds and eventually takes the dog in. The problem is, when he tells his children about the white dog, they think he is losing his mind because only Sam can see it. The dog stays with Sam and becomes his constant companion. Eventually, he realizes that the dog is really Cora, back to take care of him through his last days.
A heartwarming and sometimes humorous story of everlasting love. It never fails to bring a tear to my eys.
Positively Beautiful........2004-04-11
This movie is deeply touching. The dog is gorgeous. The acting is high-quality. This is an embarrassingly short review, but there really is nothing more to say, except, "See this great film!"
