07/18/2011 The person who wrote the synopsis below obviously did not see the movie! I give this movie 5 stars. It's full of wonderful music, it's well acted and well performed. The writing it top notch. It's got humor and a heartfelt message. It's quirky and creative and a great, refreshing change from the Hollywood model. See more 10/12/2010 Well!! Here is one of those absolutely wonderful little films that I am always in search of. It was cute, quirky, entertaining, warm and enjoyable. It had plenty of familiar faces to boot. This was right up my alley (as they say, and I never knew why..lol) See more 05/26/2009 Pic is short on originality and substance, but long on charm, which helps to excuse some of its more gratuitously saccharine moments. See more 08/21/2008 Faye Dunaway is an all time talented actress. See more 08/21/2008 A wonderful movie. There should be more like this one made. Great ukulele music. See more Read all reviews
