Ratings and reviews

This movie really touched my heart. The storyline, the chemistry between the leading actors, the soundtrack.... I really enjoyed everything about this movie. It made me laugh, it made me cry, and I'm so glad I just so happened to stumble across it one day by chance. Since the movie received nearly no advertising and I don't even think it made it into theaters..... Well worth it, folks!

This is a movie with so many outstanding characters that I don't care who you are this movie will touch you one way or another!! I went from laughing to sobbing to wishing it would never end!!

Yikes! This film has not aged well. What once seemed like a progressive little indie film is now an outdated, self-absorbed, nuclear family obsessed disaster.
