Still, they never exchange a single word until the very last day of school when Bennett musters up the courage to confess his love to Rose. At last they kiss, and end up having the most memorable night of their lives. Seconds after Bennett says goodbye to Rose, a tragic car accident takes his life. His mother Grace (Academy Award® winner Sarandon) has a hard time coping with the devastating news and becomes obsessed with the final moments of Bennetts life. Her husband Allen (Brosnan) tries to make up for his past mistakes while fighting to keep his family together, and the youngest son Ryan feels neglected and overcome by his own problems. And then one night, Rose shows up at their doorstep announcing she is pregnant with Bennetts baby and has been disowned by her own family. While things will never be the same for each of them, together they come to recognize that the life of a family will carry on. www.thegreatestthemovie.com http www.facebook.com ================================= Sundance Festival Guide: Crying your eyes out at the movies used to be commonplace.
