An important movie about self-actualization
8 September 2012
Warning: Spoilers
This movie is an important piece about a woman's delayed awakening. Surrounded by a dysfunctional family and a traumatic divorce, she is able to find strength through unconditional love. Although different in many ways, this movie reminded me of 'you can count on me' - if you enjoyed that film, you will likely enjoy this one. It is more light-hearted, but just as real and complex. I think it is an important movie.

I would strongly recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys independent films touching on the subject of complex family relationships or personal growth. The script is very well written, the acting is superb, and the movie rings true to life in the setting depicted. I found it completely believable and an accurate depiction of a real life scenario.
