Kristy Swanson and Alberta Mayne play a pair of sisters who come home to help
their parents and their flower nursery business. As kids the sisters were competitive as Nicola Cavendish their mother points out. Each went in opposite
directions, Swanson became yuppie in the advertising business and Mayne became a back to nature social activist.
Their father's death really puts the financial crunch on the family as Mom finds
out dad was running a smoke and mirrors operation to keep the wolf away. The sisters don't get along at first, but when they figure it out both have the
skills that fill complementary needs to save the family business.
The Bouquet is a nice family film without too much religious preaching as I did
see it on the Christian Broadcasting Network. Danny Glover makes a cameo
appearance as a minister. The girls even realize a couple of romantic prospects
in Michael Shanks for Swanson and Jeremy Guilbaut for Mayne.
You have to see how the sisters work it. In its own way inspiring.
