An enviable life.

The way the story is told is a little disjointed but a welcome change to how movie story lines are currently made. In the end, men should be left inspired to be a better father and husband. Family was everything to Don Baily. The traditional and wholesome values presented here are lost in today's modern world. Maybe it won't touch everyone personally, but it makes me wish to be a better man. This movie is worth the time watching. It's a low budget production, but does it's job abundantly well.

It's a movie of its time escalation point

I watched this movie on pureflix. It was just as expected. Yes it's a little cheesy but that's what I expected! People are judging it about the way the husband acted toward his wife and his children. And that there were no people of color. This was what it was like during that time and also in California during that time! We can't go back and change history to fit everybody's opinions, to not offend. Life was what it was then. This is this women's story to tell about her life. Why should she change it to fit into today's standards! If she did it wouldn't be real! And yes a lot of these family\Christian flicks are cheesy, but you expect that!

Grossly Disappointing and totally Bond Bread

I understand Ms. Waite felt compelled to write about her memories of her father. However,I must say this was one of the most unrealistic and absurdly stupid movies I have ever watched. I can only say Mr. Bailey was an opportunist, a sexist, guilty of a misdemeanor,and possibly felony 1. He's a cotton farmer who returns from work every day as if he just walked out of REI catalog in his spotless truck. He dismisses his wife's request for more help, takes advantage of a car salesman, surrounds himself with nothing but white people (the only workers you ever see in the field, for a hot flash, is his family minus him)no migrants,no people of color. Do not waste you time-nothing to do with integrity and honesty.

Great Show! Man was an anchor for his family!

Having 9 children is tough enough, but this family made the best of every situation. They didn't have a lot of money but they got by and the kids learned good work ethic also. Watch for the most creative vacation plan ever. I don't want to give it away. They handled controversy between their kids in many awesome ways. The mom was 14 when they were married. That's a situation headed for divorce for sure. They were a team and raised wonderful children. The middle daughter of the nine siblings reps the story of their childhood and parents while at her fathers side in the hospital. The dad is dying of cancer.

This is a true story of a man and his wife and seven children, told by his eldest daughter Elizabeth. It's inspirational, romantic and a keeper!

This isn't one of those cookie cutter sophisticated, action packed, violent tales found on the super screen these days. This film stands alone on the merit of the story. It's a reminiscent journey of a happy, mature and loving father.

By no means is it cheesy or low budget- it is a well made film beginning with the casting, art and cinema direction and of course post production. It's not a fast moving story, rather a happy stroll down memory lane and to my delight was an hour and a half long, which made the entertainment even better.

I was sorry when the movie ended and left wanting to see the sequel.
