7/10
Worth the tears and sinus throbs

Warning: Spoilers
I had no idea what the movie was about since i had queued it ages ago. Well...this was no light-hearted comedy, to put it lightly! I ended up sobbing through the entire second half and kept crying for an hour afterward. I just decided to let myself go with it and embrace it--forgetting what that can do to you the next day--and woke up with a vicious headache.

But it was very good. Amanda Peet was flawless in this role. I love how she never overacts in her films and this was no exception. Mulroney was also very good & I don't usually care for him. Some may call this film too sentimental. To which i say: So what? Be sure to grab a big roll of paper-towels. And make it Bounty (the quicker dryer-upper.) And take 2 Advil ahead of time or you'll pay for it later. I sure did. This is not one of those gratuitously depressing films.
