MOVIE REVIEW ()  OUR VERDICT :"ONE OF THE MOST REALISTIC DRAMAS OF THE DECADE… !"
WHEN THEIR SON DISAPPEARS, THE COPPADORA FAMILY IS DEVASTATED. BETH (MICHELLE PFEIFER), THE MOTHER, IS COMPLETELY SHOCKED AND HER LIFE TURNS TO CHAOS. AS YEARS PASSES SHE LEARNS HOW TO "SURVIVE" AND MANAGES TO CONTROL HER LIFE AND RAISED HER TWO OTHER KIDS . 9 YEARS LATER, SHE FINDS RECOGNISES HER SON WHEN SEEING A LITTLE BOY WHO LIVES TWO BLOCKS AWAY FROM HER HOME...

NOW THAT THE SEARCH FOR HER SON IS OVER, THE HARD THING IS TO INTEGRATE HIM IN THE FAMILY ONCE AGAIN....

THE STORY,BASED ON A BOOK,  IS LEAD IN A VERY REALISTIC WAY,NOT SHOWING THE FALSE FEELINGS WE OFTEN SEE IN DRAMA (NO "MUM !!! " SCENE FOR EXAMPLE )

MICHELLE PFEIFER DELIVERS A MOST POWERFUL PERFORMANCE AS WIFE AND MOTHER FACED WITH REBUILDING HER LIFE.

WHEN YOU SEE THE MOVIE, YOU REALISE IT'S NOT ONLY ABOUT A LOST SON , BUT IT'S ABOUT REBUILDING YOUR LIFE, PUTTING THE PAST BEHIND... IT'S GREAT, EVERYONE SHOULD WATCH IT !

DVD REVIEW ()
 THE DVD IS FAIR ENOUGH.
YOU CAN FIND A MAKING OF THAT DOESN'T REALLY SHOW HOW THE MOVIE WAS MADE BUT IS MORE OF A "RESUME" OF IT.. YOU CAN ALSO CHECK, AS USUAL A THEARICAL TRAILER AND SOME CAST BIOS.

IT COULD'VE BEEN BETTER
