Not exactly a ringing endorsement, I know.
I was curious about this because it's another Great American movie without any big names in the cast. I admit, I thought it was another dud in the first ten minutes. The acting seemed like it was another of those GAF movies where everyone is wooden and unnatural.
Fortunately, I decided to put that aside, and the movie settled into a nice rhythm.
The story itself is kind of sweet. Two employees at a theater (plays, not movies) are reunited years after attending high school together, where he tortured her with practical jokes, and she still hates him.
Can he possibly make up for it after all this time?
This is not Citizen Kane, but the lead actors are pretty good, and have a nice little chemistry, and the story, as I said is rather sweet.
If you can overlook the somewhat spotty acting, this is a nice little movie.
