Curt Doussett lives in the town of Midway which is a real place in Utah and we see
much location shooting to prove that. Looks like one very nice and homogenous
Mormon community only Doussett is having trouble moving on after the death of
his wife from cancer several years ago.
Now daughter Mary Peltier has brought home a fellow Kirby Heybourne who is studying medicine and is in all respects quite the ideal son-in-law. But Doussett keeps trying to find fault. The truth is he doesn't want to lose his remaining family.
Like in the Canadian series Due South where Mountie character Paul Gross talks to his dead father, Doussett imagines himself in communication with his wife Melanie Nelson. Who advises him to move on, get out and live.
This is a nice gentle G rated film which has some good life lessons to impart. It's not overtly a product of the Mormon church so it can be shown and enjoyed by a wider audience.
