This is a film about respect and dignity, both in death and in life. And we hope that we may be treated with the same level of careful attention.

It dramatizes a true story in a way that will break your heart without ever feeling manipulative or gratuitous.
02/17/09
Lazy filmmaking that fails to engage anyone who doesn't have a personal connection to the story. It's so well-meaning that it ultimately means nothing much at all.
02/15/09
A tedious 85 minutes of Kevin Bacon saluting.

Does this really tell us much that isn’t patently obvious to anybody with a brain and a heart?
