American movie (2001) by director Peter O'Fallon, starring Vanessa Redgrave as Maddy Bennett and Ray Liotta as Nathan Neubauer.

[edit] Plot

A young boy learns to cope with the death of his mother through his difficult friendship with a cantankerous older woman. The story is based upon the 1918 novel Thy Son Liveth: Messages From a Soldier to His Mother by Grace Duffie Boylan. Although the novel tells the story of what a mother learned from her son about death after he dies in a French battlefield during World War I, the movie is set in the later part of the 20th century.
