Beautiful and touching film

Rating: 8/10 (10 March 2017)

I watched this film today. It had me in tears. What a beautiful movie. The little boy is played by Freddie Highmore who I think is a great actor for his age. I haven't seen many of his films but he played the part beautifully. It is about a orphan boy who is musically intelligent and he leaves his boys home to go to NYC to look for his birth parents. His mother played by Keri Russell, was told by her father that the little baby boy was killed but in fact he was put up for adoption by him. When she learns that he is still alive she goes to find him. Keri Russell played the part of his mother really well. I'm not a big fan of Jonathan Rhys Meyers but he was OK in this film. The ending was so touching and it will definitely pull on your heart strings. A lovely film and definitely worth watching!
