Amazing! What a LIFE story.

It reminded me a a recent movie I watched called "A Rumor of Angles". I will post it in the recent movies watched thread.

"Still grieving the tragic death of his mother, young James (Trevor Morgan) is sent to stay with his Uncle Charlie (Ron Livingston) on the Maine coast, where he meets an eccentric old woman (Vanessa Redgrave) who will change his life forever.
