Old films that you can't remember the title of.

Recommended Posts

Mine from the 70s.

 

A bloke and his wife divorce and she leaves him with their boy, who it turns out has lukaemia (sp?) and is dying.

Wife finds out and tries to get custody of the lad and the movie is basically about that.

 

The last scene of the movie is the father takes the dying kid to a fairground and asks the owner of the... the roundabout thing with the horses that go up and down... forget what theyre called... to clear it and let him and his son use it.

 

The last bit is of the lad dead on his fathers lap as the horsey thing goes around and around, he always loved that horsey thing and his last wish was to ride it.

 

 

ITS SO SAD!!! SO DAMN SAD!!!! :sad:

 

Ive been trying to remember its name for years because I want my OH to watch it because she loves stuff like that and if she realises that I actually paid good money to watch that crap in the 70s then she`ll realise that Im in fact a sweet, soft hearted little angel and I might get nookie!

Mine is a film with Christopher Reeve and Jane Seamore, where a writer becomes obsessed with a stage actress from back in the 1900's. He finds a way to travel back in time to meet her.

I remember it being a really beautiful film and i would love to see it again.[/quote
