Mulligan's adaptation of Joseph Olshan's novel doesn't merely flirt with pathos, it positively marries it. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- Goldberg is on top form, doing her Jamaican accent shtick. Full Review

Without any charm or verisimilitude from Miss Goldberg, the film would have degenerated into hopeless goo. Full Review

Buoyed by a beautifully measured star turn by Whoopi Goldberg and a smashing screen debut for young Neil Patrick Harris, Clara's Dream is a powerful, unabashedly sentimental drama. Full Review

"Clara's Heart" has several pluses. There's the rapport between Goldberg and Harris, impressive in his screen debut. And it is a relief to see Goldberg working back into "The Color Purple" mode. Full Review

The surprises may not come quite often enough for some, but at all times there is Goldberg's glowing performance to keep us fascinated, or a nice salty bit of humor, or a great little character riff by Harris that's completely endearing. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

David Hart (Neil Patrick Harris) is a preteen as disillusioned as a 40-year-old and as vulnerable as a 5-year-old. The death of his baby sister and his parents' subsequent separation have left him despairing and lonely. But he's about to discover all the love he needs.
