The movie could have done without the search for money, and continued dealing with the development of the father and daughter, but even so, it is a good movie.
The father has been released from prison. He has never seen his daughter. She has been raised by her grandmother. He has to slowly get used to being out of prison, and being a father.
This is dating myself a bit, but Tommy Lee Jones' reaction to his daughter saying she isn't a "lezzie", and her talking about (not support) of incest, shows him to be a person ready to join the Moral Majority. On the other hand, when don't parents worry about the next generation, and what they're learning in school? And this was before we had the internet.
Sadly, the lovely world depicted in the movie has been given a setback by the recent hurricane. People will bounce back. It's nice others are helping them.
