i have to see plausibility in a film . even sci fi stuff with half man half beast stuff have some plausibility what with dna tamper possible . but this cliché laden namby pamby cutesy thing be the first time i give a negative number on the plausibility meter . rich white guy from the south do not marry their servant black daughter no matter how good look they sound and look . and they do not get ship off to vietnam and get shot rescue an orphan . if theyre in vietnam and theyre the one bark the order have graduate from rotc . and rich southern gentry do not will their vast art collection to former black employee either . i just couldn not get past all this ridiculousness to see any poignancy in the film . way too much hooey to see any amessage .
