Beautiful film

This film was just beautiful, Alex was so strong and inspirational. Myself and my 2 sisters watched this movie many times. We grew up in a time where no one shared problems or got support but watching Alex and her strength of character, touched us deeply. My sister now has a son called Alex in her honour. There wasn't much acknowledgment of children's pain or strength back then but Alex and her zesty character going through so much empowered myself and my sisters. She did also break our heart. We would love to see this movie again, watching her sing and put on her jewels and see how closely love and pain can live so coherently. Ultimately, however sad the outcome was children were touched by this girl and they've never forgotten x.

EXCELLENT TV MOVIE, FROM BACK IN THE 80's.

This was an excellent TV Movie, I saw it when I was 10 or 11 years old, this movie made me cry. I hope I can obtain a copy of this great and wonderful movie someday. Craig T. Nelson is an excellent actor from his movie roles in the Poltergeist series to TV sitcoms. Two Thumbs Up for Craig.

Have been looking for a copy of this movie for years!

My three children and I watched this movie together and still talk about it often. All three are grown with children of their own now and we have been looking for a copy for our movie library. The story itself was beautiful and the casting was perfect. The day to day lifestyle of a family with a sick child was both heartwarming and heartbreaking. We still quote the line from Alex, "Daddy, my little Daddy."

I think the best part was the portrayal of Alex herself. The vivacious personality that everyone adored. The brave little girl with the huge heart. The actress who never stopped acting up until the very end.

To this day, after all of these years, this movie remains one of our all-time favorites!

Alex , the life of a child

It was a tear jerker but a very good movie , sad part is that happens all the time. She must have been a special child for GOD to want her back. A must see movie , would love to buy a copy.

Alex: The life of a child

Don't watch this movie if you have to go out in public anytime soon... this film is a tear jerker from the first scene to the last. Although it was a TV movie from 1986, I have never forgotten it or have ever seen a movie that touched my heart so much! As sad as it was, I wish I could find it to see it again.
