Um Anjo em Nossas Vidas

This film stars off a little slow but before it goes off you will be tearing up. I found myself having a lump in my throat at the end.. don't want to spoil anything.. if you like good hearted family films this is a classic.

This is not a blockbuster of a movie, in fact it is small and simple with actors who have no big screen credentials. But none of that matters because of the meaningful story. It is about Lucy, a special five year old girl who gets sick a few weeks before Christmas. She has a pneumonia infection that proves to be very difficult. While in the hospital she befriends a man who is incarcerated but needing a kidney.

I see one review calls this a "sad sad sad" movie and I suppose you could look at it that way. But I prefer to look at it as a "happy happy happy" story of redemption and how caring more for others can make great things happen.

The little girl is really good in the role of Lucy, the story was written and the movie directed by her grandpa, no doubt was also the reason for the focus on Lucy and her deceased grandpa in the movie.

My wife and I watched it at home on DVD from our public library. It is faith-based all the way and I suppose that will turn off some viewers.

An incarcerated man who is suffering renal failure, a five years old girl Lucy, who looks at her grandfather and speaks with him: then Lucy has a dream about a sad man. Lucy has to go the hospital because she has a pneumony infection and meets the sad man. That is different Christmas story where the gifts are the friendship and the organ donation. Also a nice story of redemption (God works on mysterious ways).

Great performances of Scarlett Diamond, Vincent Vargas, Adam Hightower, Florencia Contreras Stevens and Shawn Stevens.
