La vita di Sara

If I could rate this zero stars, I would. PLEASE don't waste your time. The positive reviews are clearly all written by the same person. No storyline AT ALL, no sub characters. Whoever chose the music for this movie needs to find another job.

Ordinarily there's a certain expectation from 'made-for-TV' movies. This one, with the always-lovely Jennifer Beals, was marvelous. Her beauty and range of emotion...sometimes carrying scenes with a glance or a facial expression...tipped the scales for me. The interplay between Sarah and her 'love' was sweet throughout, and it was beautiful to see a couple's relationship grow slowly rather than race to a quick end. The final scene, without giving anything away, was just as you'd like the movie to end.

'Sarah's' surrounding cast was fabulous, but Jennifer's starring role was even more so. Three cheers for the movie, and endless cheers for Jennifer.

I watched the movie tonight and truly loved it. So much so, that when it was over, I looked to see who the author was so I could tell her how much I enjoyed the movie. It was so different, yet so real, and so beautiful. Thank you Julie Brazier for writing this story and whoever made it into a movie for television, thank you too. Also the actors did a wonderful job. The only face I recognized was "Sarah"...but all did an excellent job, including the small parts. As I wrote that sentence I recalled something I was told when I was in my 1st play. There are no small parts, only small actors. This movie had a host of wonderful actors doing a marvelous job portraying a story that really reached out to the viewer. I just wanted to say thanks again. I went on the internet to see if she had written any other movies or maybe a book. I found this site, so I hope word gets to her to let her know how much I enjoyed her movie.

This is a charming movie. Jennifer Beals, as always, is beautiful and talented. The sound of her voice is enchanting and her laugh is delightful.

Really heart-warming, charming, and sweet. This movie restored my faith in Lifetime Movie Network. All the actors are the kind of talented where I didn't even notice how good they were (until I read a previous poster's comment afterward) because they just WERE their characters. And all the characters are rounded and not static. They change and go through problems, feelings, conflicts, etc. It's really easy to watch and get absorbed in because so much of Sarah (and others) is revealed slowly and progressively. You witness the full growth and evolution of her romantic relationship and personal journey. The scenic views of wherever (Vancouver is where it's filmed?) really add to the setting and ambiance, also. Props to Sarah for going to the pound for a dog instead of a breeder (this is in the first 10 minutes or so of the movie). I don't know whether men would like it as much as women, but then again, it did air on Lifetime Movie Network.
