This movie has a "Lifetime Channel" vibe that stays mostly in the background and is easy to ignore because the main story is extremely touching and the movie is often visually beautiful. There was a powerful dance sequence which was a nice touch. It would have been better if it was the only one, unfortunately they added a second sequence later that upped the cheese factor and distracted from the scene it was meant to mirror. Another thing I found annoying was the piecemeal way the background information was dribbled into the main story. I was also annoyed by the tired plot device used to generate some conflict toward the end ("I have something important to tell you...oh, it can wait.")
Complaints aside, I found it to be beautiful and comforting and worth the watch.
