Wissenswertes
Jim Stovall: Author as a limousine driver. The interesting thing about this is that Jim Stovall is blind.

Patzer
(at around 23 mins) Jason has been talking to Mr. Hamilton when Mr. Hamilton turns away and leaves. Jason looks to Miss Hastings to ask where Mr. Hamilton is going. Jason looks right of Hamilton, but Miss Hastings is left of Hamilton, meaning Jason has asked his question to an empty chair and a blank wall.

Zitate
Jason Stevens: You thinking about butterflies?
Emily: No, Jason. I'm looking at the stars
Jason Stevens: You know, I set this whole thing up because I thought YOU wanted to go horseback riding, not your mom.
Emily: Get real. Horses are smelly and sweaty.
Jason Stevens: So, sweetie, what's YOUR dream. If you could dream of anything - anything - what would YOUR dream be?
Emily: My dream? My dream was a perfect day... and I'm just finishing it. My dream is to be with people I love, who love each other, and that love me.
[scene shifts]
Emily: What about you, Jason? What's your dream?
Jason Stevens: I don't know. For as long as I can remember, all I wanted to do was have fun. Now, I don't have a clue.
Emily: It's okay. Guys are clueless.
[Jason laughs]
Emily: Hey, you have to know this: even if you don't have a dream of your own, you gave me mine. That counts for something.

Discovering a New Man

After the death of the oil tycoon Howard 'Red' Stevens (James Garner), his greedy family is gathered in the office of his lawyer, partner and friend Mr. Theophillis 'Ted' Hamilton (Bill Cobbs) and his associated Miss Hastings (Lee Meriwether) for reading the will. For his reckless and selfish grandson Jason Stevens (Drew Fuller), who hated him, Red assigns twelve apparently simple tasks called "gifts" of work, money, friends, learning, problems, family, laughter, dreams, giving, gratitude, a day and love challenging the playboy Jason to a journey of discoveries. When he meets the leukemic girl Emily (Abigail Breslin) and her mother Alexia (Ali Hillis), Jason changes his perspective of life and money, superseding the expectations of Red, improving and becoming a better man and receiving the ultimate gift from his wise grandfather.

What a wonderful surprise "The Ultimate Gift" is! This simple little movie has a magnificent story of discoveries, friendship, family values, redemption and love, supported by awesome performances highlighting the girl Abigail Breslin, whose witty dialogs make the viewer laugh and cry. Do not pay attention in the bad reviews in IMDb, and you will see a pleasant movie with a beautiful message. My vote is eight.

Title (Brazil): "O Presente" ("The Gift")
