CGiii Comment

A suburban middle-aged tale - nothing particularly new - but, very well constructed and superbly acted.

It is a character study of a middle-aged woman whose world is thrown upside down more than once.

It has little CGiii but it is a fine, fine film - that will leave you thinking.

The(ir) Blurb...

A sharp-witted suburban wife, Terry Wolfmeyer, is left to raise her four headstrong daughters when her husband unexpectedly disappears. Things get even more hectic when she falls for her neighbor Denny, a once-great baseball star turned radio d.j. This leaves her daughters out on a limb. They are forced to juggle their mom's romantic dilemmas as well as their own.
