Lee 07/23/2012    This is an awesome story about true friendship, followed by reallygreat acting. It is sad, but at the same time it shows us that leaving our loved ones with trusted people who we love and love us back, makes it easier to leave this world. Anonymous 01/22/2012    This movie is not only funny and sad and uplifting, it is a great example of friendship. This is the way friends are chosen, the way they become our family, and the way we all experience relationships in one way or another. Great work as always by The Divine Miss M. She knows her craft. taco 10/19/2009    There isn`t one bad thing i could say about this movie. Everytime i watch it, it not only makes me cry but it makes me work even harder in wanting to fulfill my dreams in the dancing and music industry. The only thing that is stopping me is where to get noticed. One thing is for sure my children will grow up loving BEtte Midler as much as I do. You are such an inspiration. Keep up the great work as you have done in the past. Your work will not got frogotten, espesially in my family.
