The Gathering (1977)
Good Movie

I would love to see this movie be released on DVD. I thought it was a very touching movie about family and forgiveness. It really goes with the theme...Life is too short. Ed Asner and Maureen Stapleton are the parents of a large family that have grown apart from their father after he separates from their mother. The father is diagnosed with cancer and doesn't have long to live. He comes home and his wife "gathers" the family together for one last Christmas. She doesn't tell the children what the real reason is as to why they would like the family together. The oldest son figures it out. It is a tear jerker of a movie.
Highly recommend this movie.
