There is only one review as I write this and it misses the mark. This is an excellent happy movie. The lead actress Bonnie Sommerville is actually 42 yrs old and really reminds me of Stephanie Zimbalist in "The Story Lady" (this is a good thing). She absolutely carries the movie and interacts great with the supporting cast. Brennan Elliot plays the lead actor and it is just perfect. This movie is a home run. Kept my interest the whole time.
This movie had the little touches that made it memorable. Loved when they ask the ex-encyclopedia salesman who memorized the "A" volume to define "Angel". He touches the little girls nose and says "that's easy, it is a picture of you". That was sweet. Love when Brennan Elliot says "That reindeer cost me a lot". The diner scenes were great as well. Yes the movie started in New York City, but most of it was in Ohio. Enjoy it.
