      Nadya R Wonderful ingratiating stars, warm gentle story, a bit dated. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/29/23 Full Review Audience Member It's a very quiet film, but a charming one. The particulars are dated (it features everything a pregnant woman should not do), but the story of two generations struggling to come to a middle ground will always be relevant. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member JUDY HOLLIDAY IS A DELIGHT, AS SHE ALWAYS IS. A FINE STORY, WELL ACTED BY EVERYONE. ONE OF RICHARD CONTE'S BEST ROLES. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
