A satisfying screen version of Josephine Humphrey's 1978 novel about the education of a young woman's sentiments about love and marriage.

Good performances help prevent this once from overdoing its quirkiness.

This is a rich ensemble, offering unexpected pleasures throughout the majority of the film.

The title seems to vary in meaning throughout the family focussed on in this film, the sense of family and love all exist through the main character who seems to be the bond holding everything together. One of those sort of films that you find watchable, yet has no real structure to it.

*** (out of four) Nice adult-oriented drama about a colorful eccentric Charleston family and the different tribulations that befall them as they gather together.
