Trivialidades:

When Dorinda returns home in the plane, she is dressed like Ripley from Aliens (1986), and similarly, she has a ginger tom cat. The cat, however, is named Linda Blair.

Goofs:

Factual errors: After a successful retardant drop, a tanker pilot lands at the tanker base and taxis to a stop. His plane is surrounded by cheering firefighters who appear to have been working on the fire as their fire clothes are dirty and they are holding firefighting tools. Real firefighters wouldn't be hanging around a tanker base after being out on the fireline, and if they were they would not be allowed to swarm a plane on the taxi way - too much chance of someone getting cut up by a propeller or run over by a plane.

Quotes:

Dorinda Durston: It's not the dress... it's the way you see me.

GIVE ME YOUR HEART

Why I love the film Always...

I'll just be honest here --- when I originally saw Always at the cinema in 1989, it was just a few months after my big brother passed away prematurely at the age of forty, and I'm not at all afraid to say that I cried like a baby. Like so many Americans, I have watched far too many films that i have taken to heart, but you know, Always is probably one of the final American films to ever really explore and display such deep human issues as unconditional love, mortality, and what a hero really is -- and isn't. It may be mushy, romantic, and a bit flawed, but I am proud that Spielberg made this bitter-sweet film -- I just saw it again and, if anything, it comes across as even more humane and honest in today's America of aggression, greed, and "relative" truth. If you've ever really, honestly, been so in love and committed to someone that you were willing to unconditionally put their needs before you own, or if you've ever lost anyone who meant the world to you, check it out. It changed my life when I first saw it because it made consider death in a new light... and it is about to totally change my life again as I have decided to live every moment for the rest of it as honest and decent and true to myself as possible --something that few of us today are willing to admit is lacking in our lives.
