Renew Zellweger stars as actor George Hamilton's mother in the story of what happened when Hamilton 's parents divorced and she began what amounted to an extended road trip to find someone to take care of her and her two boys.
I'm kind of at a loss as to why I should care about this story. Yes I like George Hamilton and I've always been curious about his story, but for whatever reason the story as told here is less than compelling. I really didn't care. Personally I don't know what Merv Griffin saw in the story that he shepherded the film along over the several years before his death. In all honesty if it wasn't for the actors, Zellweger and the two young men playing her sons, I would have walked out. The performances are quite good and make the film seeing, though I'd wait for cable or DVD.
