At start of the credits we see newspaper headlines and photos depicting Mstislav Rostropovich’s sister getting approval to travel to the U.S. to visit her brother, and then headlines reflecting the end of the Soviet Union. This is followed by Jeff Daniels giving the usual Angel message about paying it forward and buying a ticket for someone who may not be able to see the film otherwise. The final part of the credits play over nice shots of the northern lights.

Are There Any Extras After The Credits? No
