The entire town knows what happened to flawless beauty Birdee since Connie let her know about the affair on a national talk show. Back in town, she’s dealing with catty old friends and acquaintances from high school who can’t help rubbing it in her face that she isn’t as perfect as she thought while still trying to get back on her feet with her daughter, Bernice. Deeply depressed, she runs into an old friend, Justin Matisse, who tries to help her through, but is still in love with her. Birdee must make a new life for her and her daughter, but will Justin be able to be part of it?
Plot: Birdee Pruitt has been humiliated on live television by her best friend, Connie, who’s been sleeping with Birdee’s husband, Bill. Birdee tries starting over with her daughter, Bernice, by returning to her small Texas hometown, but she’s faced with petty old acquaintances who are thrilled to see Birdee unhappy — except for her friend Justin. As he helps Birdee get back on her feet, love begins to blossom.

Just what you’d expect
I went into this movie last night expecting nothing but mush, and maybe a few laughs. Which I got. I did not expect the pure corny-ness of it. It was like it was following a set guideline for the cliche of this type of movie. Everything happened in the places you’d expect it to. People dying, people breaking up, bad things happening, lahdy dah, no surprises. It started off really well but when downhill from there and dragged. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed it for what it was. Just don’t be expecting anything more than mush. Powerful? Huh? Were we watching the same flick? Worth crying over? Hardly.

Slow paced love story with excellent child performance
I actually liked this movie. Neither because of the slow development nor of the fair acting of Bullock/Connick Jr. The brilliant performance of Mae Whitman as Bernice made this whole movie worthwhile. I’ve never seen a child outperform her “co-stars” like that. She sure would deserve the Academy Award for best supporting actress. So if you want to see a slow love story with a very good child performance (German magazine “cinema” wrote: “…she has the potential of Oscar winning Kathy Bates (“Misery”)…”) this is yours. If you are a fan of high paced action movies, don’t bother to see this, you wouldn’t like it anyway.
