This one's for Lifetime fans. Two young sisters lose their parents when dad goes to Vietnam and mom splits for the bright lights. Two tracks to the story: The girls live with their grandparents (Melissa Gilbert and Corbin Bernsen) on a farm in 1967 and the adult version of the girls return in 1996 after years of estrangement. Added complication for the little girls is learning to understand their senile great-grandmother (Cloris Leachman). Mild drama, mild comedy. Happy times, sad times. Made-for-TV level production. Predictable, not memorable.

HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE save your money and skip this movie. I checked it out cause of reviews and I was throughly disappointed. Bad acting bad story bad everything.

First, the cars have to be right for a period movie and they were for the late 60's. I hate it when I see a 70's car in a 60's period movie. This is a TV movie that contains some exceptional acting. I agree with "jonathangrubbs" that Cloris Leachman, Darby Camp and Chandler Head were very good. There was one scene, however, where Corbin Bernsen was downright GREAT.
