Brooke Ellison Story DVD Summary
Christopher Reeve
directed this inspiring made-for-television
drama
based on a true story, which turned out to be his final project before his passing in 2004.
When she was 11 years old,
Brooke Ellison
was involved in an auto accident that caused her extensive head trauma and serious injuries to her spinal cord.
Doctors were uncertain if
Brooke
would survive, and while she pulled through, the young girl was confined to a wheelchair for the rest of her life.
However,
Brooke
was determined to live as close to a "normal" life as was possible, and to excel despite her condition.
With the unflagging support of her mother, who attended classes with her every day,
Brooke
not only received top marks in high school, but graduated from Harvard with honors.
The Brooke Ellison Story
stars
Vanessa Marano
as young
Brooke
,
Lacey Chabert
as
Brooke
in her teen and young-adult years, and
Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio
as her mother,
Jean
