Reception

The film has a 45% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.[5] Stephen Whitty of The Star-Ledger referred to the film as "a very poor movie."[6] Nicolas Rapold of The New York Times wrote "The soppy, instructive story of acceptance feels handed down from another era, though Ms. Rowlands can fire off a one-liner at 20 paces, and she effortlessly conveys oh-my-oh-me adorable."[7]
