The Lost Valentine

My husband is a Hallmark movie junkie and he just adored this movie! He cried at certain parts, and yes, I choked up too. I loved Betty White in this one--she had a great balance and realistic display of emotions. It was like she was thinking of her deceased husband and channeling that emotion into her character.I'm not a big fan of romantic, tear jerking Hallmark movies, but this one is a keeper!

Tear jerker..Betty was a great actress.

If I could give this movie 10 Stars I would! I do not know if I should have waited to watch this on Valentine's day but do not regret that I didn't. If you ever saw the movie "Simon Birch" and you were blubbery mess then be prepared to be more so with this film. In addition, be prepared to not have a hanky but a baby blanket (trust me!...you'll be needing it). The cast that included the incredible Betty White and Jennifer Love Hewitt was truly amazing even with the obnoxious best friend/coworker. I think Matthew Gilbert of "The Boston Globe" said it best about Betty White's performance "She's a funny lady for sure but she can also nicely managed gravitas and vulnerability". I think perhaps because we are so used to seeing Miss Betty White in so many comedic shows/films that when you see her acting this deep level of emotions you cannot help your heart not to ache alongside hers. I cannot ever remember watching a movie and sobbed as much as I did in this one. I have watched it a second time thinking that I would not be caught unaware again in emotions and while it was not as much as the first time is still got me the next time around. Do I recommend this production?? How dare you even ask such a question!! After I re-read some reviews of the movie, I have come to realize that I did not get the special features others have written about...what gives??

I wanted a copy of my own after seeing the dvd a couple of times! It a great story, and besides who does not love Betty White!!

Wonderful movie and so touching to see Betty White in this movie.

Betty White and Jennifer Love Hewitt were excellent actors in this Heart Breaking Story Movie!! I, almost forgotSean Faris as the Grandson to Betty White's character! I have known many people who have gone to WAR and never came home!! Another movie that is simular to this movie is The Christmas Visitor!! These movies bring out emotion, especially during the Holidays as these do!! An excellent movie on a touchy subject of a loss from WAR!! At times I wonder if we can learn from our losses?? With HISTORY as it is....not so!! These movies cause the individual to reflect with in ourselves the HURT!! I HOPE that OUR LORD hears our cries for our LOSSES and VOTE for THE POLITICIANS TO WORK OUT PEACE!! EACH OF US NEED A BREAK from this repeating cycle!!

Loved this movie.

A poignant story about an elderly military widow. A great job by Betty White and Sean Faris. Scene near the end at the train station gives a good feel of the emotion of military rites at a funeral.
