    Real True Love

    I agree with NUHR whose summary was "Inspirational". It was a truly touching movie. I saw it in 1995, and always remembered it. Recently, I just taped over one of the VHS tapes belonging to my new husband (!), and found the end of this movie on it. I watched the rest, and was so happy to have found it again. It is a moving, real-life story of true, true love. I highly recommend it.

    Educational, sensitive and a happy ending

    I am a mental health professional and after watching Dare to Love on January 6th 2000, I was overwhelmed with emotion.People who are not educated on mental illness can't imagine what family and friends go through when dealing with a mentally ill person. Hats off to Lifetime TV for giving those who don't understand this disease a chance to understand that medication management and support from loved ones, patients can again become productive in the community and improve their quality of life. I am interested in getting a copy of this movie or any information as to when it might be viewed in the future. THANKS BARBARA

    Lifetime has done it again..A film with a strong message

    I too was taken by the total love and commitment shown by Jesse and Patrick in this terrific film....We need many more films that emphasize this sort ot theme...I have personal family experience with schizophrenia....Bravo for everyone connected with making this film and I do study the credits, always Nick,Florida

    A sweet and uplifting movie

    I recently watched a Lifetime TV re-air of Dare to Love and was left with a great and hopeful feeling about love and life. It has very many similarities to Splendor in the Grass with Warren Beatty and Natalie Wood. I saw the latter movie actually after Dare to Love and immediately drew parallels between the two movies. What makes both these movies great is the connection between the main characters--the audience is always aware of the strong love that both Bisset & Gedrick's and Beatty & Wood's characters... in good times and bad. I highly suggest seeing both and compare for yourself as their endings ultimately diverge and differ in terms of audience reaction.

    Uplifting in a sense that it gives you the feeling true love is out there.

    This movie was sensational. I would love to have it on tape or to see it every week when I hit a low spot. This movie gives you a giddy feeling about falling in love and having someone there no matter what. How hard is that to find these days? If anyone has this recorded or knows how I can purchase it, please let me know. Thank you!
