I've always loved this movie, & love the last song that Bette sings, "The Glory of Love"! Great tribute to a great singer, & star! COPYRIGHTS OWNED BY RESPECTED CREATORS!!
So sweet. I was blessed with being able to take care of my beautiful Momma in her last days and there with my family as she took her last breath. I so miss her but am thankful that I was there. I played music for her as well. So glad she had Jesus with her then and now for eternity.
Kyin Terandra it was on all the time, morning, noon, and night. Just like Grease 2, it played 24/7. Some movies just became part of Gen X culture, that we alone get the joke.
My sister and I watched this movie together all the time. She was 16 years older than me. This was our movie and forever young was our song. I miss you and love you sis!
I just found out my best friend has days of to live. We're bi-coastal. She's in CA+I am NYCrying+can't stop. She made me promise to make sure her kids are taken care of. Life imitating art much?! Omg life sux so much! WTF?!
This song and well movie reminds me of my late best friend Betsy. 😢 she died if breast cancer. Found out she was pregnant and had cancer the same day.. ❤ she was a fighter... hugs to all that can relate. The laughter is deep the pain is real the memories are forever.
I love how her style of singing the song changes over time, from childish bouncy, to loud theatre and finally as she her self has loved, been loved, lost love she ends up singing the song with so much tenderness and experience.
What is nice about this is that C.C. sang this song in a more upbeat manner at the beginning and she sang it nice and slowly here. I thought it was a great tribute to their friendship and a great way to dedicate it to her friend's memory.
My best friend from elementary school found me after 40 years of separation. It's so wonderful having her back in my life. We're in our 60's now, but we picked up right where we left off. I sent her this movie and every time we haven't spoken for a while, she feels terrible and I use this movie's byline: "Some friendships last forever" We're just busy, not neglectful....
love this movie I cry every time I see this move I lost my mom when I 14 to cancer and I remember watching this with her I totally can understand how you feel when u lose your mom at a young age it never get easier
I always think about my grandmother in this scene. When I lost her..I lost a lot. Still grieving. This movie gets me all the time. What a beautiful arrangement
i got you, my granny passed away 3 moths ago, soon it will be time to go to her house again and pack her stuff one last time, i relate a lot on what Victoria is feeling by leaving the home she grew up with her mother because evntually Hillary was not coming back..
I find this ironic: When C.C., as a kid, sings this song at the beginning, she sings it more upbeat and Hillary says she almost cried at it. When C.C., as an adult, sings it slowly, Victoria stands in the sidelines and smiles.
As a child I loved how it came full circle. As kids Hillary watched CeCe sing this and it ended with Victoria watching CeCe sing it. So devastating but beautiful ❤️ I loved that CeCe hated kids but would have given her life for Hillary and made the ultimate sacrifice by taking Victoria. Best friends are like Sisters- The bond is unbreakable.
After singing this song since childhood..... The character finally gets the DEEP emotional meaning of the song >>> Deep love for a lifetime AND BEYOND!!!!
I remember being a little one and my mother crying so much at this movie. I lost her several years ago, but I'll never lose the memories of her singing this to me. I have not found it in me to watch the entire movie as an adult. I don't know that my heart could handle it. One day.
The name of the movie is "Beaches" made in about 1988. It is such a wonderful movie. Seen it about 20 times through the years. It shows off all sides of Bette. But make sure to get out the Kleenex. If you have ever lost someone close to you that you have loved with all your heart. This movie is soooo cathartic. If you feel touched by it and are crying, just remember there is someone crying with you too...
I'm Black from the streets of Chicago, Il and i love this movie.... showed me even white people go thru reality... really opened my eyes to the world... Thanks to my aunty for leaving this movie around the house
Omg lol this comment is so sad because some people really do think that white people don't struggle. I am white and come from a middle class family and believe me there have been struggles. There are no hand outs, no better chances. Just struggles like everyone else!
I didn't realise cancer was an ethnic only problem?! Get outta here with your blm tosh. EVERYONE HAS STRUGGLES! Stop seeing colour and see reality, your world will be a nicer place - even with those struggles!
This movie will forever be dear to my heart when I was little my sister and I would stay up at night and watch this. We always sang this song to each other... but she moved away and started her life. I was at the mall with my mom and I was talking about a song to do for a school project and the new version came out of Beaches and I was humming the lines " You've gotta love a little laugh a little" and my mom stoped me and said I should do this song for my project and I've never been more happier then ever!
This song is my mums song to me and she's not only my mum but my best friend and the one person who has been there she has been my mum and my dad and my my best friend she is one in a million lady she knows who she is and I couldn't have asked for a better person to be her love u mum xxx
One of Bette’s very best renditions of a classic song. Enormously moving. It may seem silly to some but I waved to my Mom like that after she died. It’s like saying, please don’t go, but we’ll see each other again. Like trying to give them one last hug.
this is one of the most beautiful-est heart breaking heart felt songs of my favorates of all times, every time i hear bette midler sing it, it makes me cry. i love the way bette midler sang it at the end, its touching heart felt, this song takes me back too sadness, darkness, in my own life, i cry every time i hear it, i liked the movie beaches except i was sad when hillary passed away, i gess i'm more of a cc cause i to, want to be in show biz, an i would never ever sleep with any of my friends boy friend, Espacialy one they really like, some things are just taboo that, SISTERS, COUSINS, and FRIENDS, just don't do, you just don't do and thats why i say you got to be very careful when you call some one your friend. cause ONE DAY, you can learn the hard way in life, the hard way, an get the shock of your life. but beaches is a great movie to see.
watchng ts video is.... very..very hard...when you lose someone this song, both heals those wounds, and reopens them. When i hear it i cant help but cry and feel amost nothing bt pain and guilt..silly huh?.... well...when, your grandparent, your grandmother, is the woman who raises you, teaches you and loves you all your life...you Honestly cant help but cheerish their favorite song...and you cant help but feel gilt. I never really appreciated this beautiful song until its too late. Rest in piece grandma.... ill see you on the other side when i get there...
I was diagnosed with Cardio Myopathy just like Hillary Whitney. Im here through God and his Glory of his love. I can't help but cry during this part of the movie I watch it.
The Lyrics Tell the Story of LOVE so Well....Every Day in life is not going to be a Sunny Day but If YOU have that One Special One and know that their Arms our always going to be Your Safe Harbor in any storm you both will make it & be Happy even if all You ever have is Each Other.....I've had this feeling twice in My life and it's the Best and most complete Feeling in the WORLD.....The First time helped me to understand Love & realize it when I felt that I would never ever feel it again for Second time......Thanks My First great Love for sharing this with me.....I've carried YOU in MY Heart Always and My Second Love understands it Fully....Special people are special people and Time doesn't change that ever.....Thanks so much for letting me be a part of Your Life and being there when I needed someone the most....That kind of Love is Eternal and it never goes away.....Love, U'R DB Bob
She Has The Most Beautiful Voice I Love This Last Scene This was Really Touching Have y'all ever lost someone that like your best friend and you have 1 of those moments you wanna think back.of a song you thought about your best friend well that what she did how she sing to her from beginning and that's what too strong best friend that love eachother dearly💕
This song touches my heart every time I hear it. With all its ups, downs, joys, and pains, love is still a beautiful thing and a blessing when you find it. If you haven't seen the movie "Beaches" get your popcorn and tissues ready. You're in for a treat.
This song is about true friendship. A friendship that's lasts forever even if you haven't seen them for a very long time it's just LIKE you where with them yesterday THAT'S THE STORY OF LOVE X
I watched this movie when I was 8 years old and bawled!!! My mom came in the room thinking I hurt myself. I cry EVERYTIME I watch this movie. Never cried on any other movie...❤💔
@Vivian Mancusa Beaches is one of many strong bonds I have with my grandma. Today, she's 88 years old, and we still watch it every time we're together. Our song is "Wind Beneath My Wings."" I cry like a baby whenever I hear the song. And when God calls her home, the movie and song will be heartrending. Yet, it'll be a forever cherishable memory I always had with my grandma.
My older sisters fav movie R.I.P. V she passed away didn't get to tell her goodbye this songs for you dear Vickie my friend my sister my rock your my guardian angel now
Beaches is a movie that will rip my my heart out, stomp on it and drain all of my happiness; Only to willingly allow it to happen again after a couple of years when I decide to watch it again.
