Customer Reviews

Grieving and New Life and Relationships amongst women

It had it's moments but there was too much talent and not enough story lines to make it beefy enough for me. Julia Roberts did really well as Trilby the daughter who dies. I liked Dolly Parton but I was confused about Sally Fields delayed reaction to her daughter's death and the two ladies were good. When you have too much talent it can over power the story. Still not a bad movie for a summer evening. It could have gone a bit further at the end.

Love love love this movie
