“Witt’s Daughter captures the sadness a service member feels in missing out on the beautiful moments a family has without their soldier. Unlike many films however, Witt’s Daughter has hope that love can bring a family close again. I am a service member that understands being away from his loved ones brings trials, but these trials can bond and grow a family, Witt’s Daughter illuminates this story.”

Specialist Robert Ham, U.S. Army Paratrooper and Broadcast Journalist

“I don’t think people often realize the depth of the problems the soldiers face when they return back home. Especially those who have just had kids and then have to leave for a few years. It happens all the time, and it has to be incredibly hard on both the soldiers and their families. Nowadays it’s easier to keep in touch with video chats, e-mails and digital photos, but back during the Korean war, they didn’t have those things. When Witt went off to war, that was it. He was just gone, and other than the letters I’m sure he wrote, he had no connection with his family until he returned back home. The story was brilliantly written and was played out with incredible sensitivity and in a way that made you really feel for the characters…”

“Carole Holliday demonstrates a sensitive gift for authentic story-telling as well as a real talent for hand sculpting a motion picture. Witt’s daughter will touch your heart and reassure your spirit that love is the balm for their deepest wounds.”

Larry Carroll, News Anchor

 

“Set in 1953, Witt’s Daughter showed the America hidden in obscurity behind a glamorous age. In telling her story, Carole Holliday does an incredible job choosing characters that each exhibit their own innocence…”
