Somewhere, Tomorrow (1983)
Sweet and uplifting film
Gosh, I must have watched this 20 times when it first came out on cable, and I was in my early 20s. It's so sweetly hopeful and romantic, and if you've experienced personal loss, it really speaks to you. Well, I happened to check Amazon Prime Video, and it was available so I bought it. Just watched it, and 40 years later it's as good to me as I remembered. Reading some of these reviews, I would have to agree that it's cheesy in spots with laughable 80s fashion, but the overall message of the movie is so very sweet, and I just love it!!! I also agree that I wish we would have seen more of Tom Shea!! He was so very good in this, and cute too.
Final Witness (2012)
ID's best show
Admittedly I am a hardcore Investigation Discovery geek, and have seen almost every show multiple times. This is my favorite ID show. It is exceptionally well-done, from the music chosen for episodes, the resemblance of the actors to the actual people, the respectful yet all-engrossing way the stories are told, the camera shots and settings. The way the cases are told from the victim's POV makes you see things in a new light, even if, as another reviewer noted, these are familiar stories that we've seen before. It's the most empathetic of the ID's shows that I've seen. Of course, warnings apply for graphic depictions of dead bodies, etc., so not for squeamish or young people. Highest recommendation!!!
