Like High Plains Drifter as a Hallmark Hall of Fame presentation.

It's an unabashedly manipulative, melodramatic tearjerker with plot twists that Horatio Alger would have been embarrassed to use, and the fact that it's so well acted only confuses the issue.

Rating: 4/5 --
Methodical and lyrical in its well-paced movement. A durable and devoted drama that is so unassuming in its execution
Movie Eye
Soul-satisfying movie about the spiritual process of turning pain into joy and bringing new life out of darkness.

Original in some ways but the same old plate of fried green tomatoes in others, this Sundance Festival favorite might rate wider acclaim for its two leads if the overall tone weren't so bloodless and even dreary.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Percy Talbott (Alison Elliott) has had few choices in her twentysomething life, but she'll make the most of this one. She's chosen Gilead, Maine, as her new home. The town's Spitfire Grill has offered her a second chance. It's not just the burnt toast at the diner, owned by feisty Hannah Ferguson (Ellen Burstyn), that has folks wondering about Percy. It's that she's been in prison the last five years.
