This film is based on
a novel by James Michael Pratt. Caroline
Thomas visits Union Station on every Valentine’s Day to honor the memory of her
husband. In 1944, she said goodbye at the Station
to Neil, he was Navy pilot leaving for WWII. The day was Valentine’s Day when he left and also their
first anniversary. Caroline had
their son while he was away. Neil
was declared missing in action has not been found for 65 years. Susan Allison works at a local
television station as a human-interest reporter. Her boss gives her the assignment to film the story of Caroline and Neil. Everything is going well until Caroline
suffers a minor heart attack.
Susan’s boss wants to cancel the story because of her health and it’s not finished. Susan and Lucas, the grandson of Caroline, think the filming has meant a lot to her and they would like to continue the interviews.
This is good and interesting and you get very involved with the
characters. Who can resist Betty
White? This film is also a tribute to
all the soldiers who have fought for America. 4* (I really liked this movie)
