I happened to catch this movie last night on TV. This movie really touched me. It was so sad. I would like to tell everyone that it was a great movie and story, and if you haven't seen it. you got to! its a long movie too...it came on at 11:40 pm and it didn't go off till almost 3:00am...I just couldn't bare to go to sleep without watching the whole movie...and man was I tired too! LOL....well I am most diffidently gonna watch it again...it was that good. Loved it.... I told everyone too about the movie. I hope it comes on again soon. I felt so bad for Kimberly's father. the one that raised her from birth..He went through so much...Kim and her biological family too. I really felt in my heart that I went through every step of the way when them both. I really got into the movie..I couldn't stop crying! It was really emotional.
For anyone who came here looking for this movie
And where to watch it, since it was taken off YouTube I've tried and still continue to try and post it but I bought the vhs tape off eBay and digitally transferred to a mp4 file..2 seperate files roughly 120 min long , at any rate , you can contact me as I'm open to finding ways to share it!! Was a fav movie, I over payed on eBay but it was dactory sealed and I only played it to copy it but willing to share! You can contact me at the same name on Facebook . I am currently trying to find wya to upload to YouTube without copyright stopping me. So pl.
I do have a little more insight on this story then most people do, I have at one time lived with the Twiggs, who are a very loving caring family, and the movie made them look like crap. At the time when Kim Mays lived there, I live there also. A lot of people think that the Twiggs did not look out for Kim, that is not true at all. I still talk to Kim's biological brother pretty often. I guess the best way to put it, is the movie is wrote well, however, the movie is fake, it does not really tell you what really happened. How do I know? Well because I lived it! I have talked to Kim many times. But here is what really has been going on with Kim, she is not doing great, she has a drug problem, she has been in and out of pasco county jail on a number of occasions on both prostration and drug charges. That is the real Kim Mays
This movie was something I just happen to come across on a rainy day, and I am glad I did, this was an excellent movie, all the acting was well done! This is one I will love to watch again, and if this ever happened to me, or I was the lawyer representing the Twiggs, I would have said to only get visitation rights, because she may be their biological daughter, but your parents are the people who raised you, and that's the most important thing in your life! Other family dramas with this sort of situation I could really recommend are "Flight of the Navigator", "The Majestic", and the one episode of 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' called "Suddenly Human". watch them all, they are all very good!
I do not recall seeing the movie but I have met Kim personally and stumbled upon this story by accident. I love to Google people to see what I find and well I found this. Let me tell everyone she is doing great and because of her past I feel she has to be the strongest most beautiful woman I may have ever met. Kim is a wonderful mother to her daughters and yes she may have messed up in her past but darn I did too and I am sure you did. God forbid there would had been a camera following us. I have not met a women yet that was not molested or rape and it did not lead to fast behavior in some way at one point in their life but the bigger picture is that she is working to overcome her past and build a bright future.
