this be a great movie with a good cast and all of them hit on all cylinder . and when dianne keaton be at her best and well and it just doesn not get any good than that . but tom everett scott and always underrated and be even good . he should be a star . my only complaint be with one aspect of the screenplay . none of the character ever acknowledge that the dead daughter wasn not always a good person . and neither be her mother and play by keaton . at one point she break a promise she make to one character not to reveal that he have be sleep around . one of the other commentator say the movie have a political agenda . that be a baffle thing to say . there be no politics at all in this movie .
