Academy Award-winning actress
Helen Hunt makes her feature directorial debut with this adaptation of
Elinor Lipman's best-selling novel about a Philadelphia schoolteacher (
Hunt) whose long-lost birth mother (
Bette Midler) reappears at the very moment her daughter is careening into a midlife crisis. Abandoned by her husband (
Matthew Broderick) and still grieving the death of her adoptive mother, the emotionally fragile teacher enters into a relationship with the father of one of her students just as her biological mother, an eccentric
talk-show host, appears on her doorstep attempting a reconciliation.
