Tanya’s Score: Okay-and-a-half*
Rated: PG-13
Starring: a bunch of B-listers; Ellen Burstyn
Plot: A young woman (Alison Elliott) is released from prison and moves to a small town where she finds work in the local diner.
Tanya’s Verdict: I remember watching this years ago and loving it. In my memory it was a moving and poignant drama filled with twists and turns. Re-watching it more than 20 years later, it’s definitely not bad – though I found it to be contrived and hokey. Both my teen daughters thoroughly enjoyed it.
*Four score descriptions: Sh**; Okay; Good; Great
