You have been a good mother to your son, and it shows.
What made the movie so powerful for us was the display of faith. After we got home, I re-read some passages from various biographies, and the dialogue could have been copied verbatim.
I would say this movie was a gift to us, and I cannot wait to see it again.

I have to admit I was a little bit surprised when he said it. He's 11. He's starting to mature, but you know, those things come in spurts!!! But his remark was one I hope I always remember.

So many people complained about the way people spoke in the movie, but I enjoyed it so much. I have just been reading "The Blue and the Gray" by Commanger and the letters and journals in the book are filled with such dialog.
