When Sarah Hopson (Valerie Edmond) realizes her successful high-rise New York lifestyle is devoid of meaning, she packs her bags and heads for her home town in the Scottish Borders to look for Sam, her childhood sweetheart and the only man she ever loved. Sam Murray (Gerard Butler of PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, DEAR FRANKIE) runs a restaurant. He and Sarah grew up together and Sam hoped they'd grow old together. His world fell apart the day Sarah left and now she's back, standing on his doorstep and telling his wife she'd like to spend some time with him.

Summary: When Does Life Begin?
Comment: One of the best movies.... the acting was great.... the story was sensitive and so true... we all sit around and wait for our lives to begin to find out that we're at the end! Very moving. I've purchased this movie several times for gifts for friends. I loved it!

Summary: Translation, Pleaase
Comment: Looks like a good movie - maybe - but between the heavy accents and loud background music, I couldn't understand much of what was said. Checked for Sub-titles but there weren't any. Would really have liked to watch the whole movie but gave up after the first half hour of hearing/understanding 1 word in 100.

Summary: Sweet story
Comment: Living life's last pleasures before the end. Lessons learned - make the best of each day

Summary: The Keys to Life are the Simplest of Things
Comment:
Any Gerry Butler fan should love this movie. It has everything: romance, sadness, humor, and a real message.
That message is: Cancer doesn't just affect the person with the cancer; it affects everyone who cares about that person. We own our lives and we should take charge of our lives. In the end all we can do is follow our hearts.
Director Vadim Jean levels the sad moments with wonderful humor, delicious sights and sounds from the beginning to the end. Such a unique opening with Sarah on top of the Empire State Building in New York and the crossing of the ocean with sounds of waves and birds calling when nearing Scotland. The reflection of Sarah on the train window while crossing the countryside is reminiscent of movies filmed in the 40s and sets the mood.
The introduction of Sam (Gerard Butler) playing his beloved classical music with a conductor's touch, Sam meeting with Frank in his restaurant, Sam explaining his helplessness with sandcastles and typewriter keys, Frank and Sam discussing a treatment for Sarah and her funeral, and Charlotte confronting Sam in service are such precious pieces of acting.
Another delightful bit of performance is Sarah and Sam making custard to the tune of Hey Boy Hey Girl, intertwined with scenes of Charlotte dressing for the opera. The love scenes at the Opera, and Sam and Sarah in their cottage come together in a romantic blend, ending with an empty seat at the Opera. It tells the story in a unique and lovely way. The heartwarming ending in New York with Frank doing what Sarah wanted him to do, take charge of his life, is appropriately set to the romantic tune of How About You.
There could be no better actors in the parts of Frank (James Cosmo) and Sam (Gerard Butler).

Summary: Uma obra de arte e um sopro de vida
Comment: Este filme foi uma imensa surpresa! Há alguns anos resolvi, após ler uma resenha dele na internet, assiti-lo e fiquei encantada com a história, as atuações e com a delicadeza e profundidade do filme que trata, com muita beleza, desde os atores, passando pela belÃssima fotografia e incomparável trilha sonora, sobre o que realmente "sobrevive" dentro de cada um quando sabemos que temos pouco tempo de vida!
Sem nenhuma gota de melodrama, é uma ode à vida!
