kram-annod Review of If Tomorrow Comes

If Tomorrow Comes (1971 TV Movie)

Few movies stay in your heart like this one

[10/10 · 29 March 2016]

I saw this movie many, many years ago and to this day it still has a special place in my heart. The powerful love story along the lines of Romeo and Juliet, the political and social statements made, all left such an impact on me that I have carried the lessons learned through my life. There are few movies that are as powerful as this one. The historical significance of the times the movie presents, as well as those of the release date show us that the heart will take unbelievable leaps of faith, despite the feelings and thoughts of others. Both sides on this love story transmit the effects of fear and prejudice, the basis of which is understandable, yet sad. In real life, history repeats itself. I cannot recommend it enough, and now with the passing of Patty Duke, I want to get it added to my collection so my grandkids can see it. One word, WOW.
