How Can Someone be so positive?

Jonathan played by Mitch Teemly is one of the most positive characters I have seen in a film. I will admit it annoyed me at times but the consistency of Johnathan's actions eventually won me over. The premise and story that unfolds may seem far fetched to some but I know of several very complex interpersonal relationships in my own life. So this was not a stretch for me to believe.Christine Jones as Evelyn was enjoyable to watch and reminds us that those relationships are not straight forward. I think she showed how we all battle with our past and how it plays into the present.Two of my closest friends are of the Catholic faith so while not necessary to know it was helpful in understanding the ceremonial aspects. It's always nice to get a happy ending. I agree with another reviewer that the music was cheesy yet the lyrics did support the storyline.

I am no Catholic but this is one for all faiths

A memoir of lifelong love, loss and redemption. Apart from the totally cheesy music LOL that in spite of being really cringey kinda fitted in with the personality of the story narrator this was really a moving and touching story.Inspiring for all faiths and a call to root and ground your life in more than yourself. That there is a bigger purpose for being. That is a message of hope for people of all faiths and no faith.Really like the cast and hope the message about the priest and his relationship to the families is a true story as it is fine.
