REBA RECALLS...
This is a beautiful love story about a woman who was in a coma for 20 years and wakes up to find her husband and best friend are in love and her daughter is now grown. However, it does have a happy ending! It’s based on a true story and was quite unbelievable the first time I read the script. I got to meet the daughter of the woman that was in the coma.
This was the second time I was able to include my music with a movie which was a big thrill! We shot the movie in Los Angeles, and a lot of my scenes were of me in the bed still in the coma. Those were the easy days! :)
I loved working with Tim Matheson and Bess Armstrong. Scott Foley was in it too. You can see him now on ABC’s Scandal. So proud of his continued success!
