I fell in love with Bill Overton before they left the park; Cora's inability to commit to a man before she had a sense of herself was decades ahead of its time...Bill's "Peter Pan" tendencies are really a profound commitment to joy and surprise, and Henry O'Neill as Cora's father is the great remediator and earns every bit of Cora's loyalty, "high, wide and handsome". Modern, full of stylish characters and character it's a jaunty little Jane Austen-like morality tale of the delicate balance between taking life seriously and the honorable pursuit of never-ending impulse, of maintaining your backbone and honesty in the face of losing face, and of the rewards facing up all wrapped into one romantic comedy.
