Caught this movie on the way up to HK and I must say it was really quite good despite the small screen that I watched it from. I was crying buckets and the guy seating 2 seats from me must be wondering this woman is nuts.

Story is about a woman's journey after the death of her husband. Her search for her own self just when she thought her world crumbled. How her husband helped her through it from the letters he wrote and how she emerged being stronger.

She had friends and family for support but initially she pushed them away, preferring to just be a recluse. Her network of support never gave up to help her. But eventually, life goes on. People do move on in life and she found it hard to deal when the centre of attention is no longer on her. How apt this mirrors in reality, we all like attention from people but when the spotlight is no longer on us, how do we deal with it? I dunno, I still searching....

Anyway, the movie really touched me...now I am quite tempted to read the book.
