Review

"Writer-director Paul Weitz turns in a generous, handcrafted piece in which everyone shines."--Globe and Mail"This is Tomlin's first leading role in a film in 27 years, and even though she is sharing the screen with multiple generations of fine actors, nearly every moment in this movie is all hers."--Chicago Sun-Times"An initially breezy family comedy about mothers, daughters and abortions that slowly sneaks up on you and packs a major wallop."--Variety
