    wonderful family film

    This is a film that all ages would enjoy. Very heartfelt and real. Its about being confused with what life brings and not sure which path you are supposed to take next. Haven't we all been there at one point in our lives?! Scared to take that next big step because that will foretell your destiny! The scenery and music of Maine is breathtaking also. I really enjoyed this film because you can feel the emotion breaking out of the characters. You can tell these actors are very experienced with what they do! Watching a romance bloom is something every girl loves to watch too -- you can really feel the connection between josh and micki. I am definitely recommending this to my family and friends.
