Zoe Saldana played the heck out of this role!! She deserves an award for this role
Right!!!!! I said the same thing!!!
The italian deserve an emmy!
she does, I hope she gets recognition for this
Agreed! She was absolutely phenomenally!
I totally agree.
This is not just a love story between a man and wife but love story between sisters.
Yeah that part too,her sister is a truest love everyone needs. The series was beautiful.
Absolutely 👌
It is many things. Love story between man and woman. Love story between her and her sister and the whole family. And also love story between her and the Italian family.
and family
And Family.
I binge watched this today - and cried for damn near 5 hours STRAIGHT!! It’s not just a love story - it is about a FAMILY that loves HARD!!! I LOVED IT!
Watched it yesterday. Still crying. Seriously still crying
Yup I cried like a baby!
I cried too.
Yes!
OMG!! Me too. I've never cried so hard and for so many hours over a show.
One of my favorite things about this series is how it portrayed the love & support of a black family. This is something that is not portrayed in movies or shows enough.
Definitely loved that as well.
Then why was Zoe in it?
@@brooklynbred1460 You are one terribly confused individual.
Absolutely!!!
@@brooklynbred1460 she's part Haitian, which identifies as having African ancestry.
You can still see the love and pain in her face when she speaks of her husband…. made me cry all over again ❤
WHEN I FOUND OUT A FEW HOURS AGO THAT THIS WAS A TRUE STORY I CRIED ALL OVER AGAIN. I BINGED IT LAST NIGHT
It was such a beautiful story and seeing it was true wow ....I cried so hard
The way she held back her tears 😢 at that scene. So heart breaking, yet she's so so so strong
There could not have been a better actress than Zoe Saldaña for this series.
Zoe herself is married to an Italian and also speaks Italian.
One of the best romance series ever.
I was wondering why her Italian so good 😂 makes so much sense now
I like Zoe but you never see her play with versatile men like Denzel,Micheal B Jordan ,you never see her play as their romantic love interest I mean zendaya,Kerry Washington u see them play roles with versatile men black white ,whomever u never see that with zoe not being racist the only movie I seen her do that was drumline with nick cannon....
Zoe Saldana doesn't consider herself black, yet she keeps taking roles of real life black women. Can't stand her!
Absolutely a beautiful movie... Had my complete attention. Zoe Saldana did the thang...
@@janderson947 You're not lying. And she does that purposely. Unfortunately, a lot of Afro-Latinas are not down with Black (ADOS) men, particularly those from the Dominican Republic like Zoe is. It is sad, but it happens. Still, she was magnificent in this role and I hope she gets an Emmy award for it.
I was not ready for episode 7&8 I cried so much. I couldn’t sleep after because it made me think about life😢😢😢 they both nailed the characters
Oh my God! I couldn’t sleep and cried all night, thinking about my late husband, mom, dad… it’s just seems so real with Zoe she embodied that role
Aswear to God!!!
I watched it last night and let me tell you, I've been praying for all my loved ones like crazy, I couldn't sleep, I've barely eaten.
I've been saying "fuck cancer" in my head for the past 12 hours.
It's a lot, This movie and the actors, especially Zoe Saldana deserve several awards
I did the same thing.
@@TheSaaci sending you love and peace❤
Yess! I have to keep taking breaks, because it’s becoming too much. So good and heartbreaking at the same time!
Watched this yesterday the whole series. I told my friend I want to watch something light hearted. Omg! I cried buckets, loved the music throughout too. This one got to me, this show's so much culture, love, heartache, family, laughter everything. Thank you.
My eyes are still puffy! What a beautiful love story.
I cried a lot too oh my word Zoe is an amazing actress
Wow! sounds like a good "must see" show. I will watch it this weekend,
Girl me too!!!! I like ugly cried!!!
I cried and cried and cried. You are so right. The love was so real and beautiful. Still feeling. Why did he dead. The shows us that when u meet that person that u love and loves you back, don't hold back. Hold hard cos with life, u can't never tell. A beautiful and sad movie. Still crying
This show broke me. I went through this with my late partner, who passed away in 2011 after battling cancer for 3 years. We loved each other DEEPLY and his loss was life changing. To this day it's still an impact in my life because i see things so differently from before he died.
Zoe really dug deep into her soul for those scenes, it felt like she and I were the same person at some points. Even some of the words spoken were exactly the same.
I need to get my hands on this book now. My heart goes out to Tembi, a kindred spirit. I have also wanted to write a book about my love and loss story. I may just do so after this.
🙏🏽
I’m so sorry about your loss
It's more than painful to read and watch the scratch. My best support to you Adriana. I am crying since yesterday and my point of view about life has changed so much. I can't wait to write my story too.
Wow...I know you cried your eyes out watching
Sorry to hear that 😞
I just finished watching this! Zoe & Eugenio, (Amy & Lino) played the HELL out of their roles!! You would have thought they were married in real life. The love, care & compassion they had for one another was truly amazing! GREAT SERIES!!!
I watched it this week and I fell in love with them. They rekindled the hope of the existence of such love in the world. Now looking for the book.
I’m NOT a love story type of guy, but this series is PHENOMENAL. Not gonna lie; I cried.
This story goes beyond love - it's about true friendship, trust, family etc. What an amazing story.
Zoe DESERVES an award for this role! She did such an amazing job! 😭😭😭👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️❤️❤️❤️
Couldn’t agree less
Yes Girl👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿; Such A talented Actress🥰🥰🥰❤️!!!
Just finished it and at 5:20 I cried so hard! When she woke up and said “you waited for me” Omgee!😢 Lord I want a love at least half as deep as this!❤
Binged this this weekend, and this part is still on my mind 😭😭😭
I couldn't have said it better. Look at God it's okay my beautiful black sisters to date outside your race. What a beautiful, heartwarming, and endearing love story. I wish I could have experienced this kind of love. I can only hope.
@@loisnoble9139 Facts
I cried like a baby!
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 I can’t
I cried not only because it was sad.. BUT BECAUSE I WANT LOVE LIKE THEY HAD/HAVE! So beautiful
I stayed up through the night to watch the entire series. This was such an emotional but beautiful story. Zoe Saldana and Eugenio were the perfect duo to bring the story to life. Oscars for the both of them.
I agree agree 👏🏽👏🏽, an Emmy is well deserved!!😉
Can you get an Oscar for a series? Zoe needs one!
Emmy
Lino was great
It deserves multiple awards
I binge-watched this series in eight hours. So beautiful and heartbreaking. I loved every minute of it.
me too
I did too. I loved it
Ok, I cried and cried and cried and cried buckets, but what a beautiful love story. It's up there with the movie The Notebook. All I can say is she was truly blessed with a love like theirs. ❤️❤️❤️
This was Way more complex and better than The Notebook!!
"She was holding a vision of my life that was bigger than what I could see in the moment." Her sister is equally incredible.
This series was filled with so much. From love, culture, family ups and downs, child adoption, blended families, sibling love, communication styles, attachment styles, American health care system (from insurance to hospitals), prejudice, race, tradition, the struggle of being a care giver, death, dealing with grief, having to rise up for loved ones, tenacity, the importance to keep children in the loop of everything instead of ignoring or hiding it from them, job security, and so much more!!
Fighting through it all in the name of LOVE.
This is us type show, but a true story.
Laughter. Tears. Love.
Just beautiful! From cinematography, to the script, to the lighting, acting, everything! BRAVA!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
My biggest takeaways...the love between these sisters and in this woman is what attracted love. Love inside us, around us, over us.
Watched the whole series last week and now seeing this was based off a true story is remarkable. My husband had a hard time finishing it. He was extremely emotional and he just lost his mom a few weeks ago. It really made him think a lot and we gave each other some intense emotional hugs because it really made us reflect and appreciate even more what we have.
♥️♥️♥️
I just finished watching it and episode 7 had me with snot running down my nose. I truly enjoyed everything about this series.
It’s a limited series babe not a movie 😊 but I totally agree and to think it’s based on a true story. Smh love is a beautiful bitch.
@@tiffaniecasados8934 I had literally finished it about 10 minutes before posting this and still I typed movie 🤦🏾♀️
Thanks 😂
What's the title please?
@@Josee2030 From Scratch
@@ronnielisa777 Thank you
She’s a legend Tembi Locke is extremely beautiful and talented actress ❤
I stayed up until 4:30am watching it cause I couldn't stop it. I had to finished the series that night. I WEPT!!!!!!! I ran out of Kleenex and ended up using my bedsheet.. I felt as if I knew Lino and lost him too. Chile my ass sobbed watching this. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Same here up til 4am. Such a great love story
😢😭
I know what you mean, i could not stop crying either
I cried like a baby. I couldn’t stop crying
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣you made me want to reply like this.thanks!
I haven't cried so much in a movie...
It's so heartbreakingly beautiful...
Love love love
I didn’t read the book, didn’t know the story but I watched the entire 8 episodes in one evening.
It was INCREDIBLE! Their love story was incredible. The acting was, by far, the best I’ve seen in years! It’s as though every actor was invested with their own life! I didn’t know the male lead but my gosh, he was phenomenal… the young woman who played the sister. I wanted her to be my sister! But Zoey… I am guessing this would be an Emmy instead of an Oscar but she deserves them both! We cried we laughed and we cried some more!
Tembi’s story is one for the ages.
Thank you for writing it and thank you to Zoey for brining it to life… and thank you to her sister, for supporting her, pushing her and loving her!
This show ….. it got me . I have never cried so much and for so long . It really hits the heart. The acting is amazing , the story is amazing . I could feel her pain . Im so sorry that she went through this 😢.
Just amazing 🥹.
Me too.
This is the kind of love that we rarely see nowadays. The once in a lifetime kind of love. I was sobbing like no other watching this story. Zoe Saldaña did a wonderful job!
One of the most engaging rollercoaster rides of emotions. Makes you want to curse out Lino's dad berfore he reconciled with his son. makes you go "oh Lord" when Amy's mom spoke at the wedding. This show is beyond words.This deserves an emmy!!!
I just randomly clicked on this series on Netflix, and I was wrecked! The series is absolutely exquisite. I cried and sobbed from beginning to end. Bravo. Thank you for sharing your love story.
I loved when she said her sister was holding a vision of her life that was bigger than what she could see at the moment 💗❤💗❤💗...Oh my goodness, that's what a sister is supposed to be. The best I've ever seen; I don't think there will be another to beat this for a long, long time. Beautiful and Amazing ❤❤❤
Watched, loved it. Sorry for her loss, so thankful she shared her story.
To all the women searching for true love, it's out there. Stop waiting time on those who aren't capable or unwilling to give it.
‼️
Yes 💯
Tembi and Zoe have very similar mannerisms when they speak … it’s a miracle how perfectly this all came together. What an amazing way to honor her late husband … I’m crying again OMG 😢😢😢 This was truly moving. Zoe ATE THAT UP!!! I have the utmost respect for her as actress after this … And I am so happy & grateful Tembi decided to share this story. Netflix has had a very nice year as far as talent and creativity, especially with these real life stories.
I watched From Scratch over the course of 3 days. Good Lord! I think I lost 7 pounds of water weight due to the tears I cried!!!!! I literally had to take breaks due to emotional distress! Nevertheless it is a must see. It is an absolutely beautiful love story not only between a man and woman but also their family and community.
Me tooooo!!!!!
I started watching this with my cousin last night thinking I'm watching this romantic movie and ended up with tissues flying, face soaked with tears and heart so invested in this story like they were my family 😭😭 this was amazing... I didn't even know that this was a true story ... Now I'm tearing up all over again
Same. Uncontrollable crying. So beautiful.
I cried like a baby while watching the series! It was a beautiful love. I’m so happy they made it into a series because I never heard of the book.
The book is really good
I binged the series on Friday night until 3 am Saturday morning. I laughed, cried, held my breath, and thought about my own family. I loved this movie so much! Thank you for sharing your sweet love story. Faith, hope and love. The greatest of all these is love!
I did the same thing, and 😢 😭 I never do over a movie or series it was epic
This is an excellent limited series...deserves all the awards!!!
Words cannot describe how much I enjoyed this series. I laughed, cried and feel in love with each character of the story. It also made me miss my deceased parents. Those scenes during her husband’s passing made me cry so hard, it made me remember those days my mom and dad died from their illness. This series was filled with richness and deep family love. Joys and triumphs, pains and sufferings. There definitely needs to be a second book to this story of love.
I watched every episode last weekend. I cried every episode after the 4th one. It was the tears of sobbing, nose running, trying to catch your breath. My husband tried to get me to change to something else because I was crying so hard. Watching this made me want to savor every moment of laughter and joy with my husband. I didn't know it was based on a true story. Now I want to cry all over again.
I watched this thinking it was going to be about Zoe going to Italy to learn how to cook and watched the whole series. If I had known it was going to take such a turn, I don't think I could have because my mom just passed away in the same manner a few days ago, and watching the scenes in the hospital was extremely hard and I cried, but I got through it and I have to say,... This was a great series...Everyone Please watch it.
I knew once Zoe was in it, it would have a twist. No way was a actress of Zoe’s caliber going to star in a Hallmarkest movie/series on Netflix .
I thought it was just about her learning art. I had to turn it off yesterday when they started talking about Hospice. My mom passed a year ago and all the Hospice talk had the tears coming up. I didn't want to spend my Sunday crying...lol. Beautiful story though.
So sorry for your loss ! 🙏🏽🙏🏽 I went through the same with my mom almost 4 years ago 🙏🏽
I am sorry for your loss, Ms Latonia
My condolences for the loss of your mother..I pray that you are healing and carrying your mothers love with you always ❤️
I read the book and it is one of the most beautifully written love stories I have ever read. Tembi's writing style is superb and it evokes every emotion possible. Heading over to Netflix to watch the series!
I wish I had done that. I mean read the book first
You will not be disappointed!!
"From Scratch" is the absolute BEST Netflix series, hands down!!!! I watched episode after episode in one day!!! Heartwarming, Love Packed , Heartbreaking, Warm, Inspiring all at once!!
I don’t think I have ever been impacted by a series or a movie as much as I have been by From Scratch. This series won’t leave me the same. Thank you so much for sharing your story and reminding us that true love is still exists
This type of love is something only a few get to experience.
6:36 "It's the promise, that love never dies!" Reading Tembi's book, 'From Scratch' is an absolutely amazing love story. How Saro showed his BIG love for Tembi is so beautiful. So excited to see their love story come to life on Netflix.
It is a true love story !!! Oh my goodness! Still crying .
I wish I read the book before I saw the series
That is absolutely amazing. I can't wait to watch the movie on Netflix. 🥰
@@lalinera8279 same. I didn’t even know it was a book! That’s how much they didn’t describe in the description on Netflix (I blame Netflix as they seem to pick & choose how to promo certain films/shows). But I really want to read the book now (I’ll buy it!).
I HATE when an interviewer cuts off the person they're interview interview 😒 ughhh
@Kirsten A Thank you for saying this. Folks are stupid
This series had me in tears! It’s the fact that I’m a cancer nurse, its always so heartbreaking when there is nothing more they can do for your loved one 😢 but both those actors were brilliant!
My husband and I both watched it together! We both were crying at the end! What a beautiful story of love, and family ❤ Everyone did a superb job playing their parts.
Thank you, Tembi and Attica, for showing us, especially girls and women, what real love is and should be. I’m not certain I can think of a truer love story. ❤❤
One of my favorite series, and realizing that it is a true story makes it that much more profound. The emotion in this interview is riveting
"Deeply emotional" is an understatement. This series was beautiful, it took me on a whirlwind of emotions. The family component was beautiful. Their love story was beautiful. The daughter and father story was beautiful. Ms. Tembi thank you for sharing your story.
Everyone in this series deserves an award. Great acting from every actor.
Tam!!!! I’m sitting here watching this clip crying my eyes out. I will watch this series, but it has also inspired me to write ✍️ a book on how I fell in love while on vacation to Bermuda and now I’m married living in Bermuda. Maybe I one day I will be a guest on your show sharing my story.
Tam girl, you have picked up the baton Oprah left you ❤
After hearing your story and hers, ooh I need to go on vacation. 😊
That's so Awesome!!! Bermuda is beautiful🇧🇲 I am half-Bermudian. My father is from Bermuda.
@@rachaelsegura771 hey cuzsis! 💕
This series broke my heart and put it back together again. Amazing acting from the entire cast! Tembi you are an amazing woman!🙌🏿❤️
Just started this series a couple days ago and I love it. No wonder...It's real! I so appreciate this non-traditional, non-stereotypical story they actually lived. I'm sorry he passed away. But I'm glad she had a love she cherishes and they created a beautiful daughter together. Thanks to the sister for pushing her to share. It Is blessing me to dream and encouraging me to be authentic.
I am SO PROUD of both sisters; and am honored to be part of the environment that they grew up in Houston; I want to THANK Gene and Shara for blessing our community with these beautiful children...
I have NEVER cried the way I did when I watched this series.
Zoe Saldana and the entire cast and crew did an amazing job, and to think it's actually a true life love story made it even more amazing.
I started with 1episode, next I'm up all night & have finished everything. So many emotions, I will definitely rewatch, it was beautiful.
I watched the whole series in one sitting and sobbing the whole time and everytime I think about the movie I cry buckets of tears and watch it over and over I can't stop crying. Tembi thank you for this love story and the complete love you and Saro had. Also Zoe and Eugenio deserve accomplishments and shout-outs for their incredible and moving acting it was something else.
The authenticity, the realness and generosity of heart being expressed and shared in this interview is so so incredible. Thanks ladies!
This was an experience! She shared so many parts that touches your heart, the tears are of joy and sadness! And you feel humbled and compelled to love hard and live fully after experiencing this series!
Can I say is the BEST romantic true story I've seen on Netflix so far in recent ... I looked for an error, anything but couldn't find.... It's been long a movie made me cry so hard....👏👏👏
So emotionally raw, the tears never stopped flowing. They captured the essence of real life that people goes through daily, so inspirational and yet sad.
This was my FULL and entire weekend and Lord did i cry. OMG I have never cried this much watching anything else. GREAT series, well done, emotional and relatable. LOVE IT, a must watch.
I’ve never cried so much watching a show lol I felt like I was part of the family
This is a wonderful love story. I watched it 3x already. I cried, laughed, cried again, rooted for them and their love. This was THE BEST “ACTING” that I’ve seen by Zoe Saldana. I always thought that her acting skills weren’t challenged enough. Zoe you have arrived!! The cast and the acting on ALL levels was TOP NOTCH. It was great seeing a cast old and new faces meld together to make one excellent movie. This is a keeper, one to watch every year. Did I mention the writing & directing? There are so many good things about this movie, you just MUST watch it again and again! Kudos to all for a much needed movie about love, family, hope, perseverance, life, growth and reemergence. Thank you, thank you, thank you!🙏🏽👏🏾👍🏽🎉
I watched this yesterday and loved it. Still talking about it with my husband cause he hasn't. Laughs, tears, music, food, it was so beautiful.
Tembi has so much passion when she speaks about him to this day! I love it.
Omg I cried so much for this series. There’s a level of acting in this masterpiece that gives everyone goosebumps..
This love series had me crying my eyes out. I love every minutes of it.
Me too. Woke up this morning with swollen eyes from all the tears last night.
This was the most binge watch worthy series I've ever watched in a very long time can't stop crying I'm in a puddle of tears and I'm wailing
I saw this Tamron video earlier this morning...I stopped mid-video to watch the series. It is almost midnight and I came back to my laptop and this video is still up unfinished. I cried, I laughed and was emotionally invested and inspired. Casting superb. Zoe Saldana was stellar. Now, that I see Tembe and her sister, I see why. BRAVO!!
This story was so emotionally rich! Yes you will cry, you will laugh but you will think and treasure and think about the goodness of life even when the world seems ugly.
This movie was incredible and I LOVED IT. I watched this today in 8 hours. I cried and cried. Beautiful just beautiful. I love love
I've been a care giver for my beautiful mother who I love sooooo much. She is now 88 years of age and I'm just as grateful for her now as I was before. She was diagnosed with my Alzhimers back in 2014. The experience has been so emotional and this movie reminded so much about the " Fight" you have inside you no matter bow much of a losing battle it may seem. Thank you Timbe for your beautiful story ✨✨✨
I saw this series a week ago on the anniversary of my friend who passed 7 year’s ago from breast cancer. She was a very close friend from Uk who met an Italian man on her travel’s. She learned to speak Italian they had 1 daughter. Unfortunately 5 years later her cancer returned.
My friend came home to be with her family and friends.
I didn’t realise I haven’t grieved her fully, I wet a lot & found the story of strength & love so moving.
Thank you for sharing it.
Muna Uk 🙏🏽💜🦋
What a beautiful story. My husband and I could not stop watched through the night into the following morning around 2:30pm. Let me also say Zoe Saldana!!!!! she must get some award for this role. WOW!!!!!
I binged it in one night and had my entire network online and off watch it. Zoe Saldana deserves all of the awards for this gut wrenching emotional romance.
Such a beautiful love story❤ Don't we all want that kind of love in our lives, even if it's fleeting. I cried my eyes out, and laughed through all the family dynamics. Such a great love story❤
I've watched it twice this weekend. It is a story of love, family,unity and community that I have never seen or experienced. I have no sisters and my only brother is very distant to the point of that I'm unable to communicate with him. I was fascinated with the level of love, it was portrayed so beautifully. Even the death was sad, but yet lovingly done.
I hope things work out with your brother 💞
Saldana AND Mastrandrea are just magical. Binged watched it yesterday and bawled like a baby. They played their roles to perfection.
Thank you for having Tembi as a guest. I didn't know about the film or book and have shared it and am watching as we speak.. oMG. It's such a beautiful and yet heart renching story . 💜😢💜😢💜😢💜 Thank you for pouring out your heart for us to share.. if we all could have a love like this
Bravo! Thank you Tembi for sharing such a beautiful love story and at a time when we need to celebrate true love.❣️
I can’t even watch this interview without crying. I have to read the book now. I scrolled through Tembi’s IG and she has such a full life. It goes to show we have to make the most of our time here.
Their beautiful love story was heartfelt, heartbreaking and fully committed to their love and lives... Wonderful!!
Watched this yesterday and I couldn’t stop crying. Beautiful series
I sit here tears streaming down my face just watching this segment with Tamron. Your story and your description of love, caring and friendship reminds me of my husband who passed in 2018. My husband also passed from cancer and I was his caregiver and sometimes warrior making sure he got the best treatment and care. He was the love of my life and I was his. His last words to me were “I love you so much it hurts”. This kind of love will sustain me for the rest of my days. Thank you so much for sharing your story, when you speak, you speak my words. I want to read the book before watching the series to make sure I don’t miss any of your special life together.
What a beautifully touching story. I loved the way it was filmed which captured her precious love story. Zoe was amazing in it too. We need more stories told from a female perspective. Truly moving and I loved the weaving together of both cultures. I also went from smiling because I had visited Florence etc. to crying many times regarding their bittersweet love journey. Thank you Tembi for being courageous to share such precious and intimate moments with all of us. Love transcends time and realms. I love her sister too. What a lovely supportive cheerleader she is. A true blessing. xxx
The tears I shared watching this came from
the gut, they did so well with this. You can feel it if you’ve ever lost a loved one, you can fill it as a wife and mom, daughter - ugh. Thank you for sharing your love with us.🙏🏽💙
Great show and even more touching it is based on real story, thank you !
It was so phenomenal. Layered. I smiled. I cried. I felt. The love. The dreams. The challenges.
I just lost my mom in the same manner.
I wish I could heart this instead of just liking it. ❤ this story is remarkably good, heartfelt, heartbreaking, beautiful and man my heart breaks for her. Of course he was the true love of her life. But I pray she finds love once more, I think he would want that for her.
She did. She remarried.
I watched this amazing, beautiful, heartbreaking series in its entirety yesterday and I loved it!!! From the gorgeous scenery, to the culture, music, beautiful acting & wonderful love story every minute is unforgettable ... can't say enough good things about it❤️❤️
I'm on my 2nd time watching this series!! It was SO good. Now learning it's a true story...I love it even more!!! Zoe and her co lead were excellent and acted their hearts out. I loved the mix of languages in the movie. The whole cast was perfect. I loved it!!! It took me about 2 episodes to get into it but hooked after that!
This is such a beautiful movie/series watching it made me cry so much. My sister passed away with cancer and it did indeed affected the entire family. Well done for realness.
I took a chance on this one last weekend and this story is a beautiful tear jerker. You have the feeling that “you” are “there” for each and every moment.
I 😭 and laughed and 😭😭😭! Well done - all of it! I hope a soundtrack becomes available; the music helped tell the story too; I don't know Italian but I understood the songs. Thank you for sharing your LOVE. ❤
