Wonderful movie!! This movie is sad, but very heart warming. The story is very dramatic. I think that this movie is a great family movie that makes everyone feel happy.

Mare Winningham my favorite I have never seen anything that Mare Winningham was in that wasn't five stars and this one doesn't fall short. She is my favorite and I'd like to see all her work.If you love touching story lines like I do you will love this film. Diane
