Someone Like You is the new movie based on the popular novel by #1 NY Times Bestselling author Karen Kingsbury. She is a prolific author that has written over 100 books.
Someone Like You is an achingly beautiful redemptive love story. Shocking news hits after young architect Dawson Gage loses his best friend, London Quinn. Now in his heartbreak, Dawson is compelled to launch an impossible search for London’s secret twin sister, twins separated as embryos. But along the way, Dawson never planned to fall in love.
Someone Like You stars Sarah Fisher, Jake Allyn, Lynn Collins, Robyn Lively, Bart Johnson, and Scott Reeves.
London had no idea that she had a twin sister out there somewhere. Her parents had never found “the right time” to tell her. After her death, London’s parents told Dawson their well kept secret. He missed his friend so much, that it was unfathomable to him that he wouldn’t look for her twin.
There was one catch, though. London’s twin sister Andi did not know she was adopted.
So when Dawson found her, she didn’t believe him. When she told her parents about meeting him, they finally told her the story of her birth.
I can relate to this, as my mother was adopted. She found out she had a half sibling when they were both adults, their mother having already passed. Her sibling had no idea she existed, because their mother never told them. I witnessed how hard it was to receive this shocking news.
Someone Like You Movie Review
I loved Someone Like You. The love of family is my favorite theme of this movie.. The biological parents loving so much that they donated their frozen embryo to another couple. And the love they carried in their hearts for her, believing that they would never see her in person. Then finally getting to meet, and spend time with her. The love of adopted parents for the child they birthed and raised. The child they never meant to hurt by not telling her she was adopted. And the love that Dawson found with London’s twin sister, Andi.
Faith is another favorite of mine in this movie. How God can heal our hurting hearts, and give us hope for the future.
Someone Like You is rated PG, and suitable for the whole family.
