"A Mother's Prayer" is the touching story of single mother Rosemary Holmstrom who has just been diagnosed with AIDS and is seeking to find suitable parents for her son TJ before she dies. The movie is extremely in-depth and examines her courageous determination to find a loving and caring home for her son and also examines the mother-son relationship as she struggles with AIDS and he has to adjust to the fact that he will have to live with new foster parents and lose his mother forever.The movie is an extremely sad and moving story and it had me almost reduced to tears by the time it had ended. But it accurately and poignantly conveyed the feelings and emotions expressed by both mother and son as they undergo this traumatic ideal. And it does have a great amount of humour in it as well. It also examines a lot of issues-single parenthood, AIDs, foster parents-in an accurate but extremely sensitive way.I liked everything about this movie. Linda Hamilton does an excellent job of portraying Rosemary Holmstrom and therefore continues her high standard of acting. Noah Fleiss ranks alongside Hayley Osment in his maturity and ability to act at such a young age and convey so much emotion. All the other actors and actresses-RuPaul and Kate Nelligan to name a few-also do an outstanding job and help to give the movie a strong sense of credibility.A wonderfully done, touching, inspiring and ultimately excellent film. I would recommend this film to anyone and it must rank as one of my favourite films.Rank: 10/10
