After the Promise (1987 TV Movie)
8/10
I have no words
24 March 2007
I watched this movie a long time ago but remember every detail of it. I unfortunately learned it was true after the end. This is one of those few stories you hope to believe are not real but are.The absolute most saddest thing for any Father to go through especially after having just lost a wife but given this was the 1930's nothing is too surprising; It's an absolute horror the unfortunate and unnecessary treatment the boys have to endure and their eventual outcome.I could not even believe these events actually happened or how they were allowed to happen but to our horror they did. I hope there has been no such other painful incident as this one, Jackson was truly a strong and persistent Father. Nonetheless the story has a bitter-sweet ending. Overall guaranteed to make you cry.
