5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing movie; haunting song, May 23, 2007

This review is from: Yesterday's Children [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.2 Import - France ] (DVD)

This is based on a true story, and it will leave you rethinking much of what you believe. It's about a woman with memories of a fairly recent previous life in Ireland, who manages to prove the details of that life and find still living members of her previous life's family.

It also has a marvelous score. The mysterious theme song by Patrick Williams (with some verses translated into Irish by Sean Aherne) won an Emmy and this film is, at present, the ONLY way you can hear it. (Disclosure: the singer, Jenn Mahoney, is a friend of mine, but I'd say it even if I didn't know her).

The only fault with it is that the setting was moved from England, where the real woman lived, to the US - silly, really, since they had to go to Ireland for part of the film anyway, and Jane Seymour, who plays the protagonist, could have used her own accent.

The sad thing is that I can't purchase this DVD in a playable format for my area - which includes the studio where the made-for-tv movie classic was made. I have certainly searched the net, and all I can find is other searchers bemoaning the fact that they can't buy it. Sure hope someone gets the message!!

This is an absolutely wonderful movie. It shows the importance of family at any age and the power of a mother's love. If someone out in movieland sees this, please make this movie available on DVD in Region 1 (U.S. and Canada)
