    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      A Rumor of Angels (2000) is an American film directed by Peter O'Fallon, starring Dame Vanessa Redgrave, Trevor Morgan and Ray Liotta. The story is based upon the 1918 novel "Thy Son Liveth: Messages From a Soldier to His Mother" by Grace Duffie Boylan. Although the novel tells the story of what a mother learned from her son about death after he dies in a French battlefield during World War I, the movie is set in the latter part of the 20th century.
