Rating:  - No one REALLY survives the Holocaust in tact.....
No one really survives the Holocaust;in some way or another a person,nomatter how they escaped that onslaught are altered forever in their relationships to themselves and others;that is the central theme of this 1992 EMMY AWARD WINNER for outstanding movie of the year.A young Kyra Sedgwick is shown to already be the fine actress that fifteen years later will earn her GOLDEN GLOBES.The story is definitely light fare as far as Holocaust related movies go.Good companion films to MISS ROSE WHITE would ...

Rating: - Great Drama
I really enjoyed this film because it showed the other side of a holocaust survivor and her family. There aren't many films made about what happened after the war to survivors of the holocaust.

Rating:  - Very emotional & very well acted
Great acting...they didn't seem like actors or actresses because they played their parts so well they seemed to be exactly who they're supposed to be in the movie.
It starts out a little slow, but it gets much better, and really speaks to your heart. I was crying at some sad and emotional places, and others in my family were, too.

Rating: - A great film
Both Kyra Sedgewick and Amada Plummer deliver Oscar worthy performances. After you have watched the film you will say out loud, "what an incredible movie". It is great for all ages, it is definately worth investing two hours in.
