I was going to write a star is born in Mandy Moore, except that with this film, she is almost there..The film falls short, even Allison Janney doesn't show the acting strength she shows in the West Wing. But Moore is lovely, and has such an honest screen presence, that transfers to film amazingly --- Now, as she leaves those teen roles behind, she's bound to be an Oscar Winning actress --- she's gonna go all the way, you can see it in her eyes. I hope she keeps that humility, honesty and amazing soul... for the rest of her what I'm sure will be lenghty career.
