Excellent movie then and now

Suburb acting and a talented cast make this movie work. At time it is a tear jerker, but the struggle to rebuild and re-learn to live makes this movie believable. The main character played by Bullock also learns through life's hard lesson that what comes around goes around when she must return to her hometown where she reigned as Corn Queen, but this time as a now single Mom who's husband deserted her by dumping her on a talk-show for her best friend. With her perfect life to follow her perfect teen years it is up to her to rebuild her live and regain who she now is. It was not touted as one of Sandra Bullock's best movies, but it is and maybe one of the best kept secrets. When I saw it in the theater years ago I knew it was a keeper. Gena Rowlands, Harry Connick, Jr. and Mae Whitman just to name a few are a strong, talented supporting cast.
