Don't Sweat the Small Stuff: The Kristine Carlson Story

What was supposed to be a dramatic scene of a wife being told about the death of her husband over the phone by a doctor had me laughing instead. Is this really the way the medical profession tells loved ones over the phone of a family member's death? "Your husband has expired" is just so cold and makes him sound like a credit card. Besides that unintentional comic part, the rest of the movie came off amateurish and boring. I love Heather Locklear, but she deserved a better movie than this.

Lifetime let me down with this one. This movie was VERY boring. I considered turning it off several times. The movie lacks a plot. In addition, I was not sure what the focus was; the death of the patriarch or the chaos the kids created. This truly was a waste of film. And, my time.

Heather locklear was great in this movie.u can just, Put yourself in her place.[f course Heather's looks change but her acting was way better ...> cried.and it was a true story.

I read his books and never knew he died. I was shocked. I was interested in his story and this movie with Heather Locklear. She did a wonderful job and glad she is doing so well and back at work. I thought we might lose her.

Her problems mirrored my sisters, with medications mixed with alcohol, after menopause and depression. It's the perfect storm. She survived and so did Heather. It takes a lot of work. Happy to see you Heather. Congrats on your engagement. Your daughter seems really sweet.

The movie was good, worth watching if you liked Richard's books, and to see Heather act again. Lifetime movies aren't for everyone.

Nothing happens, it's a waste of time and is about as exciting as watching paint dry. Husband dies and a wealthy self-important widow has to live in the real world by arranging a funeral and raising her spoiled daughters alone. That's about it really.
