Really wanted to like this film...good cast, beautiful setting but soooo stupid and unbelievable script. #1 What single older woman rents a house on an island that she has to row to? #2 Do you know what a seaside cabin smells like when unlived in? UGH! #3 She goes from no groceries or clean linens to a full kitchen and a beautiful Martha Stewart looking setup. Remember she had to row into town, walk to store, row back and climb a rock wall to even open the front door. #4 Don't even mention the ridiculous bow she tied up the boat with. My high school english teacher said when writing you must make people believe the story. This had so many distractions it was laughable. Good aerial shot of the cranberry bogs though.
