A Thousand Words - Nursing Home Scene (I Forgive You)

When Jack pretends to be his father for his senile mother.

[Jasmine_Rose-]

One of the best scenes demonstrating love, compassion, and forgiveness

She's a brilliant actress. Her facial expressions made this ending what it was.

This whole sequence the first time I saw this made me cry. And I thought to myself, I can’t believe I’m crying over a movie that is mostly a comedy. But I was overcome with emotion when I saw that sequence. This film deserved more praise than it got.

Never understood the hate for this film, brilliant movie. Made me feel very deep emotions.

I guess you never know   the last time you see someone is going to be the last time you ever see someone

This movie has such an important message: to let go of long-time grudges, learn to forgive, and especially to watch what you say. Words are very impactful to you and especially to the people around you. 🌳🍃🍃🍃

I truly love this scene it reminds me and my mama when she was in a nursing home. I miss our talks. I love you mama rest in heaven.

A Thousand Words not the best film o
ever but this is truly one of the better films for a drama role. Eddie Murphy has ever been in. The elderly lady is just as brilliant actress she is very talented. The music is perfect to the words that are so moving. The older lady reminds me of my grandmother I was very close to her, and loved her a lot.

This moment had me crying yesterday, definitely caught me off guard and had me weeping on my bed. This moment shows how important family is

[jamesballangee]

Made me think of the last time I talked to my dad. Sent cold chills up my spine. I knew I needed to forgive my father before he forgave his. Nothing in this world is more important than telling someone you love them no matter how much hateand pain they put in your heart. Because like young Jack said, "You never when the last time you will see someone". I told my dad I loved him but I hated him for all the pain he caused me in the 14 years I knew him. Now as a father of 2 beautiful daughters I never want them to know the pain it is to live without a dad and the last words he hears be that. My father killed himself the next day. It's taken me 25.5 years to forgive him for not being there for me, my brother and sister. I love my father

I cried so much when he said I Forgive You

[jaybarnes]

I did this as a monologue for a play I was auditioning for and I started crying while doing this scene. This is so emotional

[progamer]

Saw the movie today the first time, and this scene where he met himself in the past, is really the saddest part there, because the quote is so moving ..

[Sillygoofytime]

Love this! Watching in 2020 and probably gonna come back to watch this again years later.

[skylerb]

I cried at this part in theaters when I was 14 seeing it with my mom, her first cousin and her kids, and my older brother when we visited them in Dallas for Spring Break

[randallmyrick]

I was in my feelings today thinking about a good friend of mine who passed a few years ago, but I couldn’t bring myself to cry… I watched this scene cause I couldn’t stop thinking about it. And when jack met his younger self it hit me. This is why I needed to watch this video, so I could remember the last time I saw my friend. And I couldn’t stop thinking finally cry. Treasure the ones close to you, because you never know. The last time you see someone, may very well be the last time you ever see them 🥲

[s.e.l.e]

"I like cake, dont you jack " very hard for make me to even break a tear in movies but this scene right here got me

[DownFromtheMountains]

I saw this movie years ago, and I had forgotten how touching this scene is. It is so good/sad. Reminds me of what my mom says about giving someone their flowers while they can still accept them and smell them because they might not be here tomorrow. Thx for uploading 👍
