I absolutely loved this movie. It can be so sad and painful that one incident, just one incident, can have a profound effect on your life. Danny not receiving John Lennon's letter until decades later affected his life in ways he could not begin to imagine. How different his life could have been had he known John Lennon wanted to talk with him and he then actually contacted Lennon? Danny's one-night fling with Tom's mother, which resulted in Tom being born, had an effect on Danny's life. How different would both Danny and Tom's lives would have been if they have had a father and son relationship throughout the years.

The acting was superb and the plot was genuinely heartfelt. I absolutely loved this movie. Al Pacino is my favorite actor, and I've seen mostly all of his movies, but this movie was the one that moved me the most. He missed out on so much in life because of missed opportunities, and later in life, he had the chance to rectify and make up for what he had missed. It is never to late to repair the damage. Excellent movie.
