Movie Description
A heartwarming tale of a woman's solution to the perplexing crossroads of middle age. After her children have moved out, a maturing widow befriends a younger neighbor and her son and learns that life in one's later years does not have to be a slow fade into twilight.
Synopsis
This poignant film explores the various relationships in the life of Mildred, a middle-aged benevolent widow. Mildred is having problems relating to her rebellious daughter, so she begins a friendship with abused mom Monica, and in particular, Monica's young son. Later, Mildred forms a bond with Big Tommy, a French truck driver who develops a serious crush on her. The ups and downs of these relationships teach the already wise Mildred a few more things about life -- and about herself.

Industry Reviews
"...[A] sweetly funny and touching film..."
Travers
"...Mature....[A] sensitive piece of work..."
Brooks
"...Charming and full of compassion....So well structured and accomplished that it projects an aura of freshness..."
Variety - Emanuel Levy (09/02/1996)
"...Nick Cassavetes reveals the influence of his father, and he's certainly learned the importance of depth of character form both parents, Yet you have the feeling in this tender, often funny film that this Cassavetes is definitely his own man..."
Los Angeles Times - Kevin Thomas (11/01/1996)
"...A film of gentleness and low-key romance....Like his father, Nick Cassavetes has made a movie about a slice of life..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (02/14/1997)
