Wondering where this is going. Seems it will be a series, but the background story seems to be moving sideways. The one thing I don't get at all is why is Barbara Niven playing the mom of Allison Sweeney? I get they are about 20 years apart, however they look more like sisters. Kudos to Ms. Niven for looking so young! And, though I really like Allison Sweeney and Cameron Mathison, but they don't seem to have any chemistry. Being engaged, they sure should have a little more love-pops! Cameron surely can learn the traditional waltz box! 1-2-3! 1-2-3!

...Leaving all these bad reviews! Heartless! I just found this today on my old list of movies to watch. Found it on XUMO. OK! It starts out pretty SILLY and gets ridiculous from there. BUT, just hold up. From there you start really warming up to each character, one by one, as they enter the story. Yes, it's a calamity of sorts. But it's beautiful--in so many ways. I love the way they made it multi-cultural and natural, at the same time! The way life should really be! There was so much glue to hold this together--by all the actors. But Anne Heche was so good. They ALL were. I would watch this again and again, and if I see it at Walmart, I'll surely buy the DVD-just to be able to watch with my grand-daughter and every Christmas! Thank you TO ALL THE CAST, writers, producers, and director, for this treasure!

Within the first few minutes I realized I had seen this before. That was about six years ago, so I didn't recognize the title. Really a good story and I'm sure the book is even better. What I didn't like was the "costumes". Everyone's clothes were too clean and always looked new. Ray always looked way too clean. Everyone looked ready for church! And Livy's dresses just looked too dressy, even if see was educated and from some uppity eastern city. Outside of that, I wish it were a mini-series. They could redo the whole thing and not have everyone look so perfect and beautiful. It gets annoying.
