Here's a paragraph from a story I read which alludes to this movie: "They bought their tickets to ‘A Path Not Forgotten’ and a tub of popcorn and went into the dark theatre to find some good seats.


The previews set the tone; watching them was like power-chugging a 2-liter bottle of pure maple syrup while crying your eyes out at the funeral of a new-born puppy, or some equally emotionally manipulative dreck.

The feature film itself started off with this perfect young ‘princess’ who somehow catches AIDS while helping a kindly homeless man find the strength he needs through Jesus. A bit later the rebellious and quite obvious main love interest of the heart-broken girl entered the film with a screech of burning tires and a display of uncaring ‘cool’ sarcasm. Jonny groaned under his breath, he could see it now, “Let me guess, he quits his bad boy ways to be with the dying girl, because even though they can’t have sex, he loves her and is willing to reform so that he can spend his time filling her last days with happiness and hope, while giving her a chance to experience all the things she’d always wished she could do before she dies…”, Jonny thought to himself. His guess kept edging closer and closer to a supernatural precognition of the events of the story as they unfolded..."
