April Epner (Helen Hunt. who also directed) is having a terrible week. Her husband Ben (Matthew Broderick) has left her after only 10 months of marriage. Her adopted mother (Lynn Cohen) dies. Her birth mother (Bette Midler) decides to contact with her for the very first time.
She hurts. She's vulnerable. She's mad. She also becomes smitten with the father (Colin Firth) of one of her students.
The cast also includes Robert LaPone (Patti LaPone's brother), Salman Rushdie, Ben Shenkman, with small cameos by Janeane Garofalo, Tim Robbins, and Edie Falco.
Run time: 1 hours, 50 minutes
Rated R for language and some sexual content.
My personal rating: B
