This was too good not to be real. I knew it had to be a true story! My Lord I’m balling my eyes out !!!😢
😍😍
my cousin died of leukemia and this movie portrayed their story. left 2 babies. so young 30 years. 😭😭😭😭😭
I saw the interview on CBS this morning. After work I sat and watched the whole series in one sitting. I was so sad. She has an amazing family. What a beautiful story.
I finished watching this series last night, it was by far one of the best series in television I have ever seen. I cried the entire episode seven. I felt like I had a seat at the table watching this beautiful love story unfold. I pray to God it receives the recognition it deserves. EXCELLENT
I totally felt the same way.
I think it’s Going to get a lot of accolades; entire cast did A Fantastic Job💯!!!
When he says, your love is too big not to share 😭❤️
1:39 you could literally see her come back to reality from that time in her life with her love. This was one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen in my life. I only hope to know love like this some day.
She said writing the book allowed her to fall in love with her husband again ❤️
@@krissy0628 I gotta read that book..you can just feel the love she & her husband had for each other
I cried so much watching this series. It was a beautiful story and all the actors did a phenomenal job. ❤️
Never cried so much.... Love is a beautiful thing it's so powerful. I loved the series and to think it is based on a true story... Oh my God 😭❤️
Best series ever 👍 I can relate to this as a Sicilian
“He inducted me into a love that was bigger than I could see at the moment.” Damn. Better than Hallmark. And she didn’t lie about still loving her late husband. How could she not? I love that!
Beautiful! I love it too❤
This has to be one of the best series I have ever watched. It was amazingly written and acted. Bravo!!!!
The best limited series I've watched since Little Fires Everywhere. So good! Bravo to Zoe and the entire cast!
From Scratch is a BEAUTIFUL series. I watched it last weekend and now I can't wait to read the book. 💕
Truly wonderful and amazing, so very glad for the book and Netflix series. I was not prepared for all the tears I cried though lol. This love story is relationship goals on a whole new level, for real.💞
I loved this movie,and I love it even more now that this is actually a true story,I am Italian and watching this movie,I know exactly how they both felt,I didn’t experience it but I know how the old fashion italians think🇮🇹🇮🇹
Was there ever a more beautiful love story told? I can’t think of one. Zoe and Eugenia’s chemistry is so mesmerizing I looked to see if they are a couple in real life. Nope, just incredibly talented and sensitive actors. Bravi!
When are people going to understand that love is just love ❤❤..love always wins.
That story was just perfect!!!! Loved it so much!! And I’m so happy Tembi stated the heart can hold both because why wouldn’t her prior husband hold a piece of heart with the life they had? It’s okay to still love him and have the capacity to love again.
I cried myself to sleep after watching episode 7 and again at episode 8. Zoe saldana performance is crazy good
Crying like a baby. Watched the whole thing in one day! Ugh so good!!!!!
Oooh , I balled watching this , and in one day . I cried for two reasons . I related to this because my husband and I found each other 7 months after I lost my dad to cancer , and I was his caregiver. My husband is a Iraq war veteran who had just left the military months before I met him and our love is so beautiful , but it came with its own set of challengers as well. However after 12 years married and 13 together , it has all been worth it. This was such a great love story to watch and relate
too.
I enjoyed reading this.
maybe you to can write a book and movie ❤. thanks for sharing!
@@theherbalashpot4194 🥰 Thanks , Pray I can center myself to one day and hear from God which direction to start. I do have some awesome stories for my little 39 years on this earth.
Awwww real life … i thought it was an old story & she’s so young. Amazing story.
I binge watched this today!!!
At one point I had to stop it because it felt so real!! I had no idea this was a true story.
Well done❤
Boy oh boy.
Your sister was so right. This story must be told.
I never binged watched anything but FROM SCRATCH had from the first episode.
It’s a remarkable story. I cried and I get every emotion with you guys.
I am most grateful that his dad came around.
I love your story and I pray that life continues to be good to you. You’re blessed to find love again and I pray that your joys are immeasurable as the love form your first husband was.
You didn’t do well by your sister. Like my daughter said she always gets the short end of the stick. We see she continues to give you all her love too. She’s super proud of you and will do anything. for you. Big shout out to your family and the Sicilian people.
Top tier show this and the Notebook share the same feelings I loved it. This show brought me to tears and had me thinking about my grandmother and the love I had for her till her death
It did that for me and my Beloved Mother who passed away in December of 2021. We lived together and I took care of her through a degenerative illness that caused her to lose skills monthly. I began with the palliative care at home then transitioned to hospice. People don't understand that the nurses only come out to check up and bring supplies but the loved ones do the actual care taking.
I spoke to her and rubbed her arm and she took her last breaths. Needless to say that I bawled throughout this movie.
It was just beautiful.... and heartbreaking.
I cried sooo much watching this it was too much
Watched it last weekend and cried my eyes out….powerful story
This show broke my heart 😢 it is a good reminder to love your loved one more and to spend more time with them because life is short
Every time Zoe was crying, i was crying too
It’s been 12 hours since I finished the series and I’m still crying , I wish it could get out of my head cause when I think of the moments in the series I cry I can’t stop
her sister is so wise
"The heart can hold both." That right there! 🔥 💜
I just finished watching this series on Netflix. Such a Heartfelt Story ... It brought me to tears what an Amazing Love Story ♥️
She could have pitched that book because she can clearly relate every detail because she lived it vicariously through her sister.
I cried so much. Beautiful, but it reminded me of my brother that died of cancer. That broke my heart all over again.
Her family is so amazing … i literally fell in love with the whole family .
Everything about this series was beautiful!!! It was absolutely breathtaking, tear jerker and so relatable to the characters! I like Reese Witherspoon’s production!
This was a surprisingly lovely series. I cried that man was gorgeous and so sweet. Zoey Saldana was very good in this role. But Italy was the star 🌟 too!
Oh man this series changed my life can't believe it's a true story so much love and pain God is good
Just… watch it. It is beautifully and brilliantly written. If you have ever experienced a fairytale love, then you will instantly believe this is CLOSELY based on Tembi’s (Amy, played by Zoe Saldana) REAL LIFE EXPERIENCE. Tembi’s and Saro’s (Amy and Lino in the series) love is 100% relatable. A BeautiFULL memoir, indeed! I’m so glad Reese Witherspoon is bringing untold stories to the screen. I am beyond blessed to have a love like this.
I’ve never cried so much 😭😭😭😭
I watched the series . Very moving and yes, as man viewing the series I must admit I teared up. Excellent story of love and finding yourself after loss.
This series was so good. I love the Boucheli song as well and that wedding scene was so beautiful with it playing in the background. I've watched the series over so many times lol
This show was so beautiful and just amazing!!
I cried all the way through, loved every moment
Just started watching From Scratch. DELIGHTFUL!

I cried from episode from until the end. The love that Lino and Amy had for each other was so beautiful.
Such an amazing series. Can’t wait to read the book. The guys are weird for that last question 😩 there’s space in your heart for multiple love. A lot of people have more than one soulmate. God forbid they die I hope they know their wife ain’t staying single 💀
No kidding...😐😶😂😂🙏💖💗💚
I'm currently listening to the Audio book it's a must💜
Her first husband told her to fall in love again. They were together for 20 years
@@hleziphidhlamini1012 I am watching it in Netflix,last night I started,but I would like to read the book as well..Is fascinated and emotional too..I am around the part where they adopted the baby..💚💗🔥🌸🙏🙏🙏
Who they kidding? If the roles were reversed and the wife died they wouldn’t stay single either.
I usually don’t go for shows or films about romance but I’m glad I watched this one. It was really good and emotional.
Such an amazing series !!!!! Loved every minute of it !
I just finished the series and oh my!! The tears!!
Such a beautiful story. I watched it on my bday and it has inspired me to want to love and be loved even more
I ugly cried 😥
Very beautiful love story
Loved it!! And it's more beautiful knowing some of the scenes actually happened in real life. Cried watching........ thanks for sharing your story
Beautiful movie!Beautiful story!I enjoyed so much and cried so much😭
Beautiful Beautiful love story & diligent Family values. & If you’ve been to Italy 🇮🇹, any part; the Food is just As Good as portrayed in the series. Beautiful job by the whole cast💯💯!!!!
I know what I’m binge watching this weekend 😊
YOU ARE GOING TO CRY SO MUCH BETWEEN THE JOY OF THEIR LOVE AND HIS ILLNESS IT WAS SO BEAUTIFULLY DONE
The best series ever
❤❤❤ I binged watched last night ! I was telling my sister about the series today it was a beautiful story!
My wife was in tears!!
I cried and cried and cried... I couldn't hold my tears with what Army and her hubby went through fighting their life... I didn't know it was a real story someone went through 😭💔 so hurting
She is beautiful ❤
Such a beautiful story!!
Ive really cried watching this...i have a headache. This was beautiful love.
I cried and cried and cried.
I so much love this movie. It had me in tears 😢 😢 all through.
I am crying and i still have the last episode to watch , i don't know how many times I have to pause and close it to just cry and couldn't continue to watch it the same day ,i am still crying .
Absolutely wonderful series! Loved it and cried to it!
Awesome movie. I cried so much . Beautiful story.
Watched all episodes… what a beautiful love story… definitely needed a box of tissues. Ty for sharing your story ❤❤
beautiful love story, everyone should experience romantic love at least once.
I never cried so much watching a movie/series omg God bless them
This series was good and I had a feeling it had to be based off someone's life. Their love just seemed like a once in a lifetime love reminds of me and my husband because we really just met by chance and it almost didn't happen because I only made a last minute decision to attend my friends wedding. Glad to see she found love again after such a loss. I always say I don't think I could because my husband is just so perfect for me and our love is so deep, but maybe I would.
Thank you for making me cry 😢
Absolutely wonderful ❤️ I couldn't stop crying 😢 but a must see definitely!!
Tembi is stunning! What a beautiful black woman who seems to have a great personality to match.
I don’t think I’ve cried so much in my life 😭 this story ❤
This was such a beautiful story. And I'm usually a hard person.
Love love, this is one love story that I will never forget
This series is so good and has nicely developed characters because they are real
I cried so much Omg
Boy l just balled and cried my eyes out!! This better get some accolades.
Her love is too beautiful not to share ❤️
Series was touching

Man this movie had me crying my but off!
Beautiful love story ❤
Fantastic series. I really cried
The heart has always space to love more and beyond..! 💚🔥💕🌺💜💓
Lord! This was beautiful!
The only person that I bumped into was Angela Bassett, believe it or not. We actually bumped into each other at a festival in Compton. I saw her arms and then her face. Surprise! We both laughed and apologized. She was gracious and simply beautiful.
What a beautiful sisterhood ❤
Awwww sooo beautiful love stories like these 😍♥️
The show is really great 🙂
Binge watched it !! My fav
I’m gobbling up this story so fast but I want to slow it down. I am not anxious to get to the and at the same time I’m anxious to see what comes next. Just finished episode 4 ❤❤
Get a box of tissue for this series, you will definitely need them. It's beautiful, it's funny and sad.
Love always wins ❤
It's hard to believe that this movie is based on real life and the couple is so lucky
Love it !!
Powerful
My favorite ❤️❤️❤️
