One of the worst movies I have ever seen, bar none. Bad dialogue, bad plot, bad acting. And the continuty person should have been canned. What was with Kate Hudson's hair? Long and curly one minute and the big announcement of an expensive hair cut the next but then after that her hair length and color changed with each scene. Any woman can tell you that bangs will not grow out in one week. I hated this movie, hated it. The only thing that was good is that I bought the DVD at a used book sale for $3 and now I now why it was there. I am giving it to the Salvation Army myself. I don't know what happened to Merchant/Ivory/Prabjala when they were planning this one but they failed miserably.
