And the two stars are for Ellen Burstyn, who is always magnificent. The rest of everything here is a sappy mishmash of gargantuan proportions. The music made me want to scream and the plot tries to be another To Kill a Mockingbird, Walmart style.

And the end, with not one, but TWO comatose women in a house and nobody to look after them, one dying "so the other could live" is just way too much. The cinematography was nice, but are we supposed to believe the whole story took place in less than two weeks, because that's how long it usually takes for leaves that red to be completely gone.

Or does it take place in the land of perpetual fall? This flick is honestly one of the worst pieces of claptrap I've ever had the misfortune to see.
