I was very excited to see that this book was made into a movie. I thought it was a good adaptation of a great book, which I absolutely adored. My only problem is I can't find out when it will air again in the estn. time zone.

This is one of my FAVORITE movies EVER! I didn't expect it to be that great of a movie by the description, but I'm so glad I watched it... It touched me and shows that children born with disorders such as down syndrome aren't debilitating and they don't make life impossible or terrible for children. It completely changed my views on down syndrome; I wanna go out and buy the movie right now!!

Hi, I am wondering if ANYONE has the words to the Funny Bunny Story from this movie?! My daughter is 2yrs old now, born with congenital birth defect, and her first surgery, they gave her a Bunny...now her prize possession. So I also call ehr my Bunny. On watching the movie, i think most touching for me, was the story of Funny Bunny, but i have exhausted google searches trying to find exact words, and nothing short of watching movie over and over...so I can write the words down, can I get the story. PLEASE help!?! Patty

once a upon a time there was a lil bunny who was perfect in every way except she was not like the other bunnies.
One day when she went for a walk the other bunnys would sometimes call her funny bunny and how did that make her feel...sad.
so what did she do; she went home to mum my bunny and mummy bunny took her in her paws and said every thing is different, no two flowers are the same, no two butterflies are the same and no two bunnies...and that is why I love you!
you are not my funny bunny, you are my honey bunny!

I just found The Memory Keepers Daughter on DVD. I was at a local grocery store picking up a few things and as I passed the movie rental counter, there in the front case was the DVD for sale! The store was Ingles, you could purchase it for $7.99 or rent it. If you don't have an Ingles in your area maybe your local rental place may have it. I'm so excited. Everyone is in bed and I'm putting in my new movie.

I love this movie! Its very sad but moving. I recently read the book too. I wish the movie had included the characters of Bree and Rosemary who were in the book.

I just got done reading this book and i saw this movie and was very disappointed. The director missed out on the most important details of the story. If i had not read the book i would have been totally lost and confused by the movie. I liked all the actors except for the actor who played Paul.
