Editorial Review:
Emmy-winner Patricia Heaton (Everybody Loves Raymond) and Emmy-nominee Meredith Baxter (Family Ties) star in this powerful family drama as Wanda and Sarah, estranged sisters at odds over what to do with a pecan grove they’ve inherited in the wake of their mother’s death. Wanda wants to keep the land in the family. Sarah, hiding a devastating secret, wants desperately to sell. They are startled to discover an elderly woman, Lilly Cooper (Emmy-nominee Della Reece, Touched by an Angel) living on the property, and claiming it as her own. Against her mother’s wishes, Sarah’s rebellious teenage daughter, Gina (Anna Chlumsky, My Girl), befriends the delusional Lilly, who mistakes Gina for a figure from her past. Gina is touched by Lilly’s heartbreaking life story, and becomes determined to find her long-lost son.

Beautiful 
2009-08-08 - This is a beautiful and heartwarming story. Worth your time, and one of the finest movies you will see in a long time.
Miracle In The Woods 
2009-04-30 - This is a wonderful movie. I love Della Reese, and she really shines here. Meredith Baxter is good, also. There are important lessons to be learned here.
Great family movie staring Patricia Heaton! 
2008-12-01 - Patricia Heaton shines as she always does in this great family movie. She's a fantastic actress and it's nice to see her in a serious role. Della Reese and Meredith Baxter do a fantastic job as well. Great movie with good message!
A nice family movie... 
2007-11-21 - Two sisters learn to love and understand each other after the death of one of their parents. A good family movie with nothing to bleep out. The ride is not smooth but it does have a good ending for everyone involved!
Wonderful but emotionally over the top 
2007-06-22 - This is a movie for sons who lost their mothers, sons who miss their mothers, mothers who miss their sons or lost a son, or anyone who loves having his/her guts ripped out. It's a extraordinarily well-acted and directed story about a young black mother whose son was taken from her when small. Without giving away the ending, it will leave mothers and lost children sobbing. More than a movie, it's an experience. The theme is the amazing love of mothers for their children. Marvelously done. I gave it four stars rather than five only because it's such an extreme tear-jerker.
