The movie was well-acted and generally held our interest, but it seemed oddly edited. Some scenes changed rather quickly without any segue that made them understandable. Also, it seemed to us that some of the sadder parts of the storyline were totally unnecessary, and did little to advance the story. Overall, not bad, but not nearly on the level of 'Sideways' as wine movies go, and not on the level of others I've seen (though can't recall them now) that deal with the child-goes-against-parents-wishes theme.
