I too found this film while channel surfing. I laughed, I cried and I thought it was wonderful that Julia took time out from her celebrity to tell us about a year in her life - something that makes us all human.
I felt for her - for I knew exactly what she had gone through in a year with one devastation after the other and then....here comes mom and dad! But then you learn from Julia so much about the human spirit, family and friends - and the mom and dad who you KNEW drove you nuts and to therapy are not as horrible as you really imagined.
This is truly a life affirming film, a film of love and sadness - of joy and life. Those of us who are and have gone through cancer and other fatal illnesses with those that are close to us can identify, and those who have not will get a greater understanding due to Julia's telling and how deeply from the heart it comes.
