A Lesson for Everyone
When I was younger, our mom used to make us watch this movie. At the time, I could't possibly appreciate it because of the contents. Now, some 40+ years later, I find this movie to be something that everyone, no matter who, what ethnic background, or how rich or poor, should be able to appreciate.
The story focusses a lot on one particular character. She, like so many today, seems to want to be someone she isn't. Because of this, she causes much pain for her mother and, eventually, herself. The movie compels one to look inside themselves and examine who they really are.
I had this movie before in VHS format. I loaned it to one of my co-workers who said that she enjoyed the movie immensely. She also said that she noticed that even her husband was touched by the movie. The real clencher though, is this. She said that this was one of her daughter's favorite movies. Her daughter at the time was only six years old.
Perhaps the name of the movie should actually be: A Lesson in Life.
This is a truly good (GREAT) movie. Very inspiring. EVERYONE should see it.
