    good, bittersweet movie

    this movie is a heartwarming and bittersweet story of love between a young teacher and her student. the dialouge is alright. cheesy? definitely. but thats ok. this movie comes on lifetime once in a while. i would recommend it to people who like romances. 8 stars out of 10.

    Superbly acted, touched the core of people's circumstances.

    The title, Children of My Heart, says it all. The story unfolds within the context of love. I liked the story and the way it brings out how people react to creative, loving ideas, and how they appreciate acknowledgment. I compare this movie to Good Will Hunting in the sense of life-changing kindnesses.

    a moving old fashioned film about French Canadian teacher.

    have not seen a film like this, or of this caliber, in years. can't believe it has no votes yet. no cliches, good acting. try it, please.young teacher tries to imbue knowledge, make a difference. definitely NOT the Waltons.

    classic

    This film touches you like many films cant do anymore, it was a classic right from the start.

    I couldn't believe at first that a teacher would fall in love with her pupil and I was almost shocked but with her innocence and the way she wanted to make sure that everyone was happy was adoring and the snow scene will stay in my heart forever.

    I am not usually a bossy person but I order everyone to watch it...because you wont regret it in fact you will want to watch it again and again and again!!!

    This film should be remembered forever and they should show it more on television and amazon should sell it!!

    Slow moving, bit of a downer

    The story behind the sickly title: an old French woman looks back on her time as a schoolteacher in a Canadian prairie town, and her love for a fifteen-year-old boy who is part Indian, and as such is the subject of racist remarks.

    This TV movie is touching in a weepy sort of way but it fails to be dramatic. However the prairie life and depression-era were evoked well. A bit too innocent for my liking though.

    The characters are all 2D and the script is very cheesy and cliché. Saying that, if you like Nicholas Sparks' novels, you will probably enjoy this. However, be prepared for weeping.
