i do not know the background of the writer and director and etc . and but if they be man hat lesbian and this movie would be the logical result . ok and earl the husband be slime and fine . the doctor be slime and but in a slightly more nuanced way it take keri russell a little long to figure that out and and of course discard him like a used tissue without a trace of regret or feeling . the goofy boyfriend of the other waitress be slime a jerk and whose only quality be persistence . the doctor that keri interview in her search for a doctor all male be slime for a variety of reason . the chef at the restaurant be slime cheat on his wife for no good reason and just be a miserable human be . the andy griffith character be allow a good moment or two and but keri be the only one who can stand him . to sum up and there be not one male character in the movie worthy of respect and or even a neutral feeling . the woman on the other hand be all sister under the skin and reluctant to hurt each other and just happy go lucky gal out for a good time . they key scene be at the end and where keri have her baby ( a girl and of course ) and and realize that she doesn not need men at all . what a great lesson for woman everywhere . blah .
