Range of Motion is a 2000 American made-for-television drama film directed by Donald Wrye and based on a book by Elizabeth Berg, starring Rebecca De Mornay. De Mornay said, "The movie is about recognizing an inner strength, which you can call faith or love ... it's something every single person has inside of them".
The film follows Lainey Berman after her husband, Jay, falls into a deep coma from a jogging accident. With two young daughters to care for, she relies on her faith and the help of her neighbor and close friend, Alice Tyson, as she tries to stay hopeful about JayâÂÂs recovery.
A review from the MSC Missionaries described Range of Motion as a simple, emotional telemovie about illness and family stress. The reviewer mentioned Rebecca De MornayâÂÂs performance and the filmâÂÂs focus on lifeâÂÂsupport choices and the pressure on the family. JayâÂÂs recovery was noted as a hopeful finish.
A feature in the Orlando Sentinel highlighted De MornayâÂÂs work, describing it as another example of her handling demanding roles. The article quoted her saying the film is about finding inner strength, which she saw as a kind of faith or love.
