Not the best made film, but great story. This woman,Betty, has made women proud, Why have I never heard of this movie before, or this woman? Worth watching.

Have not watched the movie yet, I read reviews sometimes before I view. This is your mom? I am going to watch and comment afterwards. Glad you were brave enough to comment on line. You only gave it 3 stars,why?

...of warmth, tenderness & nobility. Would be cool & wonderful to see a movie follow up, documentary style of the actual present day An Lac Children survivors' story. Aside from the dramatization, this was both heartwarming & heartbreaking but worthwhile to watch.

This movie was made in 1980. The Vietnamese only started emigrating to the US en masse in the mid to late 1970s, and I doubt there wouldn't have been a large number of qualified Vietnamese actors to be able to use all Vietnamese actors. And it looks like a made-for-TV movie.

MGM being a big company didnt have the decency to use real vietnamese, all those actors are philipinos, the only vietnamese is Kieu Chinh and some of the orphans.

Even all the soldeirs in the movie were phlipinos, cheap actors, and probally filmed in the philipines. You guys could have use Orlando, theres alot of scenery and vietnamese people in Florida. Does the vietnamese people no justice using another tie in.
