I loved this film; I kind of wish it would get the Oscars; Unfortunately, it was originally aired on TV: You have these two boys born on the same day; One is black and the other is white; They hook up and become the best of friends; Yet, this is 1940s Georgia; And the black boy's sister gets pregnant presumably by her white employer, then someone turns up dead and things get right ugly. Dean Cain plays the sheriff, who just coming back from WW2, wants to see the right thing done, yet, the prejudices of the time seem to want to stay the same although clearly, times were a-changing; Maya Angelou has a pivotal role as a seer; You can't help but love watching her especially when she hollers "Justice Is Served" in the courtroom. Debbie Morgan, a great yet underrated actress has the role of the black boy's mother; And a performance she gives indeed. A good Hallmark movie indeed;

This an excellent film for the entire family. It is a very touching story, very entertaining and gives the family lots of topics to discuss after viewing. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

It was a good movie, Hallmark, and all. Kept thinking it could have been better.

This movie is excellent with great performances by the entire cast especially Dean Cain who plays a sheriff in a small racist town who helps protect a young black boy from a murder he did not commit. The tension runs high in the town...and the end offers justice but until then...one is kept guessing as who the murderer is. Highly recommended!

This was a fantastic movie kept my interest all the way through. I would recommend it to everyone.

Very good quality,plain and clear movie,
A very good movie for all the family to see, Dean Cain is a great actor.
