Nice simple story where a a drifter/musician meets a single mom struggling to leave her former life. both need to make some difficult life choices on how to move forward.
it is well acted by barnes and heigl and a strong supporting cast.
not great singing voices by the leads, but they aren't suppose to be highly successful musicians, so it is OK. movie is pleasant enough to watch and director ami mann gives us a strong sense of place (Utah rural community, folks just getting by, folks wanting to leave to make it somewhere else and end up coming back after). She manages a consistently smooth, non-sentimental, indie tone to the film.
