CGiii Comment

Sheila McCarthy is adorable...

Patricia Rozema utilises everything at her disposal - it's cheap and raggedly rough around the edges...but, it has an infinite amount of charms.

The dreams sequences could have been cut down (or out) - they don't really work and should have been replaced with more of McCarthy being adorable.

Still...charming and quite lovely.
