Tony
Posted on 10/30/2008 by Kathy McManus
Tony is executive produced by Grant Heslov and George Clooney. Actor Tate Donovan stars as Michael, a relentlessly responsible father. But the Tony at issue isn’t his son. It’s his son’s teddy bear. Or more vexingly, his 6-year-old son’s lost teddy bear. And therein lies the crisis, the challenge, and the question: Can you ever be too responsible? Read full article

What we do for love
This was a surprisingly touching and wonderful story. Most shorts are so fixated on being “art” that they forget the most human element: what we will do for those we love.
Though the little boy was off to something else by the time Tony was found, I know that he will be reminded of his dad’s love often.

Forever more
She shot me down,
Threw my heart around,
Down the river I drown.
My heart just lost its binding mold.
I do not believe it will hold.
Down my soul, forever more
and self-esteem has ment an all time low,
My life shall continue on,
Forever more, my wind shall be blow.

My Story
When I was 6, I left my Lavender Bear on a bench at the Eiffel Tower during a trip to Paris. We were on a budget and taxis were expensive, so my grandpa walked halfway across Paris to retrieve him for me. <3

I wish I had a kid to be a HERO for.
Its nice to see strangers with there everyday problems, come together and take time out of there day to help the man find TONY for his son. Everyone talked about a similar situation with there kids and wanted to help. Kids can really bring the best out of someone, also help you live to your full potential in life.Although I don’t have any kids, many of my family and friends do and I have a lot of love and respect for the choices and sacrifices that they have to make to give their child a better life. I really liked this film because it showed me that some people help out, not for the money, fame, or the personal benefits, but a greater purpose helping others with the many different challenges life throws at you.

Cute But....
Unrealistic.
1. Its unreasonable for the father to spend so much money going back to LA to find the bear, he could have spent the money on medical treatment for his son OR helping to pay for cancer treatment for a child whith cancer who’s parents aren’t rich.
2. Yeah right the bear is buried in all that trash but somehow ends up in a bag all by its self and is perfectly clean to boot.
3. America places way way way to much value on material things.

Beautiful Story
An amazing film, all of the characters were wonderful and connected with each other despite their differences. This is something we are all capeable of doing every day, but unfortunately so many avoid this. Those that do reach out are truly blessed.
The search for a lost treasure is something everyone with children can relate to. At times it is more of a heartfelt search that the parents need to fulfill for themselves, proving that they will go to any lengths to comfort their children. The child, most often remains quite resiliant.

A simular incident happened to my grandson. Parents spent a night in a motel and when leaving left a crocheted clown Jerry had endeared for several years.
He would not sleep without it and grieved for several days. Parents called the motel and reported the clown missing…and the employee’s began searching for it.’ It was located in the laundry and immediately shipped to Jerry…Jerry has CP, cerebral palsy. We will always remember the kindness of these people.
