Dan Lauria was my dad’s wrestling coach in high school. He was great in this. The ending was too sappy, I get they were going for an “American Happy Ending” but still. A lot of this looked like it was a hallmark movie.

Holy crap I'm watching films at SXSW #3
Welp this turned from a meh movie into a 4-star film in the span of one final scene. Congrats, movie.
