It's one of my all time favorite get-out-your-tissues-and-shut-off-your-phone movies. It's artistic and lovely with language like poetry and pictures like I've never seen. I don't know if it's cinematic genius or two thumbs up worthy. I just know what I like and I love this movie. I watch it often; sometimes in its entirety and sometimes just the pieces I need. So here are a few of the quotes. Maybe you'll love it too.
"Thank you for every kindness. Thank you for our children. For the first time I saw them. Thank you for being someone I was always proud to be with. For your guts, for your sweetness. For how you always looked, for how I always wanted to touch you. God, you were my life. I apologize for everytime I ever failed you. Especially this one... "
"There's a man Ian never got to know, the man he was growing up to be. He's a good-looking clear-eyed fella... about 25. I can see him. He's the type of guy men want to be around, because he has integrity, you know ? He has character. You can't fake that. And he's a guy women want to be around, too. Because there's tenderness in him... respect... and loyalty, and courage. And women respond to that. Makes him a terrific husband, this guy. I see him as a father. That's where he really shines. See, when he looks in his kid's eyes and that kid knows that his dad really, really sees him... he sees who he is. Then that child knows that he is an amazing person. He's quite a guy... that I'll never get to meet. I wish I had. "
