Une seconde chance

I loved this movie! The actors seemed so real they were very believable. The scene where the mother tells her daughter about the day she gave her up had me in tears and I don't cry easily. Lindsey Wagner and Perry King were excellent their chemistry is some of the best I've seen in any movie! It says based on a true story and I hope it is. The son was kind of annoying but his reaction was really honest. Perry King at 49 looked terrific as usual. No matter what his age. I was a little confused though when they'd sometimes say it had been 28 years and then sometimes 30 years. Anyway I'd recommend this wonderful movie to anyone whose a romantic. It made me feel so good.

that's right. i think i saw something similar to this on dateline. anyway, this is my mother's favorite made-for-tv movie, she taped it off of lifetime. it's a big tearjerker, but probably moreso for people who were actually in college more than 20 years ago.

i must admit that that perry king is one smooth operator. and that lindsay wagner has honed her role as tv movie queen. i'd give it maybe 7 stars.

I always have a reluctance at watching adoption stories. I've only seen about half this morning (the rest is pending). But so far, I've liked it. I had adoption rammed down my throat in 1965 (during the baby scoop era when babies were being ripped left and right from their young parents), when my daughter was born. The abuse from social and case workers was horrendous. I was told that I was unfit and worthless, did not deserve to live - all because I'd had a baby! I came very close to slitting my wrists wit a razor blade. I wouldn't recommend adoption to my worst enemy, that's how bad my experience was! But the way they are telling this is sensitive and kind. it's worth a viewing.

Love this movie. Lindsay and Perry were great in this.
