With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Aimed squarely at people who love relationship stories and anyone with a complicated family (so, everyone). Relationships are put under a microscope, for better or worse. Liked How to Marry a Millionaire? This is a good next one. Family ties get tested in ways that ring true.
- The mood
- Light and funny, romantic.
- The pace
- Zips along, at 1 hr 25 min. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- Made in 1942: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.
Margaret Drew runs her trucking company single-mindedly, if not ruthlessly. The only thorn in her side is writer Michael Holmes who is writing a book on some of her tough ways. With no time for men, the effect an attractive stranger has on her at her sister's wedding is unnerving. When it turns out this is the hated writer, she starts seriously to lose her bearings. Surely it can't become Maggie and Mike?
