5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful documentary!, July 20, 2008
By 
Nicole from NY (New York, New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Lion in the House (DVD)
I saw this documentary when it premiered on PBS over a year ago and it is by far the most touching, powerful documentary I have ever seen. The documentary follows the lives of five children who have been diagnosed with cancer and are undergoing treatment. The bravery and courage shown by each child as they fight to live in the face of adversity is absolutely awe-inspiring. My heart broke for them and Tim, Alex, and Justin remain in my thoughts and prayers. It is a documentary that will stay with you and make you appreciate life. You will never forget these children or their families. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars incredible film, September 30, 2008
This review is from: A Lion in the House (DVD)
I saw this film on tv. So moving, incredibly powerful. Very intimate and unblinking portrayal of parents fighting for their children's lives. Loved it.

I thought it would be hard to watch, but I got completely engrossed after the first fifteen minutes and in the end, even though it was sad at times, I felt really good at the end, like I understood something new about human nature.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Lion in the House (DVD)
Hands down the best documentary I have ever seen, solidifying my decision to become a pediatric oncologist. I would like to see them air this on PBS more often.
