Movie Reviews of The Lost Child

Movie Review: Not my kind of movie....BUT
Summary: 5 Stars

Heart-tugger. Not my usual, but the plot is emotionally engaging, the people are very well drawn, and the landscape itself becomes a character in the story. The acting is top-notch all around, including several well-known Indian actors like Tantoo Cardinal, Ned Romero, the lovely Irene Bedard, and Michael Greyeyes, who went on to star in the PBS adaptation of Tony Hillard's "Skinwalkers." (It is always good to see Indian actors hired to play Indian roles.) And of course, Mercedes Ruehl gets a chance in this movie to play a warm and hopeful role that she truly nails. 100% Family movie, safe for kids and your mother-in-law.

Movie Review: A movie you will never forget....
Summary: 5 Stars

This is probably the best Native American movie I have ever watched. The story is so true of the things that happen even today, to the Indians. Heart wrenching to the core, you will cry as you watch this movie again and again. I can certainly identify with "Odette Marie". A movie filled with love, and sorrow yet so much truth, you can't help but feel the pain and joy of these precious people. For me, this is an Academy Award Winner Movie! Thank you to the people that made it!

Movie Review: The Lost Child
Summary: 5 Stars

This Hallmark Hall of Fame movie from 2000 is inspired by a true story and tells about an adopted woman searching for her true heritage - two different cultures brought together! American Indian children were stolen by the white man and put in orphanages (lost birds). Even though she is married with children, she feels something is missing. It's a great movie for all audiences. I had the VHS and bought the DVD - a great movie to watch over and over.

Movie Review: A since of home...
Summary: 5 Stars

For me this story is two side because I work with the Navajo and I am an adopted child myself. I did not learn until I was grown that when my birth mother "placed" me for adoption, she had been told to either give me up or they would forcefully take me...and I'm white! I contect very deep with Becks and feel in many ways her store is much my own story. I say it is a must watch...especially if you are adopted.

Movie Review: Home Entertainment
Summary: 5 Stars

An excellent home movie for the whole family. Some touching moments when finding ones past and the present as well. I am not into much of these movies and purchased a new one for a friend as a gift and they loved it as well. A must see to know how the state or government has done individuals without justifiable reasons. These are things that go on all to often and laws need changing to put a stop to it.
