Editorial Review:

Description:
Birdee Pruitt (Bullock) has a life most people would envy. But when her cheating husband reveals infidelity to her on a national TV talk show, her perfect life comes crashing down. Devastated, Birdee and her young daughter head home to the small town she left behind. As mother and daughter struggle to adjust to their new lives, Birdee slowly gains the strength to open her heart and find hope again.

Amazon.com:
Cute-as-a-button Sandra Bullock is a homemaker who learns that her husband and best friend are having an affair. The so-called best friend reveals this information on a national chat show, leaving Bullock devastated and disgraced. Heading back to her small hometown in Texas, she seeks refuge with her eccentric mother. Laconic Harry Connick Jr., a former high-school classmate, attempts to bring Bullock out of her depression and win her heart. He has, you see, been carrying a torch for her since they were kids.

You will not need a crystal ball to see where this is going. It works as a middling romance, but is an annoying waste of potential. The script has much to say about finding your true identity, but does so with all the sentimentality and depth of a Hallmark card. --Rochelle O'Gorman



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Romance
The movie is nicely paced and there are a few good lines. It is about the Mother-Daughter relationship and also divorce recovery. Unfortunately there is limited time in the screen play for character development. The movie moves along though and the acting is first rate. Sandra Bullock plays her role well and has a fine supporting cast.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Different Zone Coding a problem
I did wonder if we'd be able to play and view these two DVDs, which we sure wanted to have for ourselves.

But being in a different Zone Code in Australia, we are having a problem viewing them!!!

We had no problem, with all of those "Deadliest Catch" series, so expected the some run with these!!!!

But that wasn't to be, obviously!!!!

We may have to look at buying another DVD Player, that will accept your different Zone code!!!!

So there you have it!!!!! But your service, was "next to none" and we won't hesitate to acquire your services along the way, but will need to be more careful, of what DVDs we order, in the future!!!!!

We could be interested in the "Ice Truckers" series, but it depends on the Zone coding!!! ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Indeed, Hope does Float
Having had a loss of my closest and dearest through cancer, this movie really touched me, even to the point of tears. But it was well acted, and the story was good



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Happy Customer
I was EXTREMELY happy with my movie. It was shipped very quickly, was wrapped securely, and was in exactly the condition it's description said it was. All in all, I would absolutely order from these guys again.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One of my favorites
I purchased it because every time it's on one of the chick stations, I have to tune in. The soundtrack is great, performances are great, and it just makes my hope float right on up....
