CGiii Comment

Love can be found anywhere, anytime...

This is sweet and unashamedly sentimental...and, it works a treat due to its composure.

It does veer off into melodrama for a while...but, thankfully, soon recovers.

Hearts will melt... and, it will make you think: what would you do if you were in the same situation?

It's a lovely, gentle little film.

The(ir) Blurb...

TRU, 37, is a serial bed-hopping lesbian who cannot commit to a relationship or a job for long...that is, until she meets ALICE, 60, a beautiful widow, who has come to town at the last minute to visit her daughter, SUZANNE, 35, a too-busy corporate lawyer and Tru's friend. Alice and Tru begin to forge an unlikely friendship...and more. Suzanne, who has a deeply conflicted relationship with her mother and a complicated past with Tru, becomes increasingly alarmed at the growing bond between Tru and her mother. Tensions escalate after Suzanne witnesses an intimate moment between them. She tries to sabotage the budding romance, but it backfires, as Tru Love is hard to contain.
