A would-be magical romantic comedy whose execution doesn't live up to the cleverness of its central conceit.

Returning Mickey Stern barely gets off first base, although the quaint Fire Island setting makes it easy on the eye.

Those who are looking for something a little old-fashioned will be greatly rewarded.

Aptly billed as 'a new old movie' ...proof that sentiment and saccharine need not necessarily go hand in hand.

For all of its complex exposition and brimming biographical detail, it feels more like a cheaply shot film-class project than a real movie.

Nice in a way, but it just didn't work for me. This fantasy romantic drama's basic plot sounds good but ended up not that interesting. It has the look of a made for television film. Nice to see Connie Stevens again though.

Far from being charming, there's something grotesque about a desperate older man playing matchmaker to a pair of young would-be lovers, then peering at them from behind bushes and pumping each for the intimate details of their trysts.
