5.0 out of 5 stars Dawn Anna **POSSIBLE SPOILERS**, June 25, 2005

Dawn Anna is one of the best made-for-television movies I have seen. The movie centers around single-mom Dawn Anna, a subsitute teacher who struggles to support her family financially. She finally lands a wonderful teaching job at a local school. In order to make ends meet, she agrees to coach the girl's volleyball team as well (her two daughters played on Dawn's team at different periods of time). Dawn meets "Bink"-a nice gentlemen that she met at the school. They date, and fall in love. Dawn discovers she has a brain disorder, and with the support of her kids and Bink, she recovers as best as she can. Although she will have lingering effects of the disorder, she continued to coach the volleyball team. The end of the movie shifts it's focus slightly-to Dawn's youngest daughter, Lauren Townsend. Lauren is now in high school, and is captain of the volleyball team. She's a straight A student at the local high school. I would tell you more, but I don't want to spoil the ending for you!

This story struck close to home as I have lived in Denver for 28 years and all the storyline is a great memory in my heart. Everyone did an outstanding job bringing the life of this women and the courage she felt. I feel it would be an honor to know her. I recommend this movie to anyone who thinks they are having a tough time and see how actually well they do have it.

I have Dawn Anna on tape and watch it whenever I feel stressed out with my daily activities. This movie gives me inspiration and makes me realize that my life isn't so bad. My 10 year old daughter also loves this movie. This movie is a MUST for your DVD collection.
