Kind of all over the place but still charming in the classic JMS style. Missing a little bit of the tenderness in her earlier work and I think this would've benefitted from that inclusion a good deal.

Jerry Stiller is my favorite actor of all-time because of his work on The King of Queens and Seinfeld, so when I saw he starred in a feature film, it was added to my watchlist instantly. This had a lot more heart than I was expecting
