Young Mariel Hemingway (playing fifteen, and perhaps actually fifteen, but looking and sounding twelve) is a new mother trying to survive the rigors of being on her own and raising her infant. This TV-film isn't no-holds-barred, and it cannot escape sentimentality--particularly at the end--however it does have something. It puts a good-if-green actress at the center and gives her character some tough life-lessons to deal with in a credible fashion. I felt for Mariel having to turn down dates because of her baby, working late hours at a fast food joint, living in squalid places, and yet determined to be independent and succeed. It's probably very real in its dramatization of events (this is a young woman with few people on her side), and even if the picture doesn't always hit the right chords, it's very grounded and sometimes very natural.
