Never Forever 2007


     Sophie is married to Andrew Lee, he is a successful businessman and they live in New York.  His family is very devout Korean Catholic, they regularly attend Church services and meet together to pray.  His father has recently passed away and the couple has been struggling to have a child.  Andrew feels extreme depression because medically he is the reason they can't have a child.  He tries to commit suicide,he lives and he begins to recover.  Sophie decides to take matters into her own hands.  She goes to a fertility clinic but they will not let her use a donor without permission from Andrew.  She meets a Korean man at the clinic who has come to donate and she decides to contact him with a financial arrangement. 
     This is complicated and you wonder where this is going to go?  Will Andrew find out about her plan?  Will Jihah agree to help her?  How will this affect her marriage and her relationship with her husband?  If Andrew does find out about her plan, what will be his reaction?  A lot of questions!!  I know the answers but I can't tell you because it will spoil the movie for you!!  4* (I really liked this movie)
