wow! I've been searching for this movie for a couple of years now. This is the most I've seen of it since the 70's. One of my favorites,and so touching. I found the book on ebay. I read that when it came out also. I just don't understand why so many wonderful movies like this can't be brought out on DVD, or even VHS after all these years.

Wow....yes...I remember this movie...I was teenager...and cried and cried and cried...so moving...so touching...it was a true story..I wonder how her daughter made out with her moms notes....

I followed the true story behind this movie while in college (don't ask, LOLOLOLOLOL). By calculations, the young girl is now about 42; the mother would have been around 60.

I remember this movie from when I was a young girl too. It came on television when I was about 9 or 10 years old and even now at the age of 40, this is the one movie that was unforgettable. I can remember crying when she passed. What a brilliant film. I would love to be able to sit and watch it again, as an adult and really enjoy it.

Actually there was a follow up called Sunshine Christmas. I was able buy both on DVD from someone on the web.

As a teenager, went to see this with my girlfriend when it came out (memories eh?). It seemed a quite well-known film at the time but seems to have lapsed into obscurity as a kind of poor man's Love Story.
