I liked this movie because of its story. It was very touching and sad.It has a scene where (john cusack) the dad finds his daughter smoking a cigarette. Latter he buys a box of them and then trys to make her not like them. 2 uses of f*ck, 1 of g**d*mn, close to 3 uses of h*ll, sh*t, and a few other milder slang words. No violence but very emotional and stirring.

What Parents Need to Know
About Grace Is Gone
Parents need to know that kids and teens may have a hard time processing some of this somber indie drama's mature themes, notably war and the death of a parent. The characters swear on occasion, a 12-year-old girl smokes and acts out in other ways (though mostly fairly tamely), and a grown-up suffers a near-emotional breakdown. Nevertheless, the movie has a soft center, empathizing with the experiences of a father and his two daughters as they deal with the terror that comes with knowing their loved one is on the front lines.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about how the media typically depicts war and its consequences. How is this film different from other movies about war? What are the experiences of families who go through this type of tragedy? Why do you think Stanley can't tell his daughters the truth right away? Also, what is the effect of never having Grace show up on camera? Is the film more or less effective for her absence?
