Rob Lowe at his best

Although this movie is a little dated now, I still find it an interesting and moving drama. It's based on a true story of a boy with a terminal heart condition, where a heart transplant becomes his last hope. At the time heart transplants were still in their infancy an as a result there is a sad last chapter to this story.

Rob Lowe gives a very moving performance as the boy rechristened Thursday's Child, with far to go. And Gena Rowlands is excellent also as his long suffering mother.

Also look out for a young Tracey Gold as the youngest sibling in the family.

Teen with a bum ticker

Rob Lowe plays a teenager with a bad heart. The performances are convincing and the story is well told. One learns a lot about what is involved in a heart transplant and you can feel sympathy for the son and the mother in this story.

If you liked Love Story or Eric you will probably like this as well.

Good performances

Emotionally charged made-for-TV movie about a teenager's life-threatening heart disease and ensuing transplant. The movie is slightly critical towards the American health care system's handling of a situation like this, but the filmmakers' real focus is the interpersonal drama around the kid and his family. Gena Rowlands' powerful performance as the mother and debutante Rob Lowe's sympathetic turn in the lead help augment a rather involving narrative. Don Murray, Jessica Walter, Tracey Gold, and Glen Morrissey make up the rest of the supporting roles. The film was directed by David Lowell Rich.
