This movie is for the entire family. The actors all work so well together and even the children show a flare for acting. You won't find vulgar language, nude scenes or blood and guts in this one! What you will find is a plot that is well written and a movie that is a pure pleasure to watch. It is a heart warming film about two sisters who haven't gotten along in the past and now one decides she wants to try the "single" life. Stockard Channing is spectacular, as always, as the sister who is tricked into caring for her niece and nephew for one night. Or so she thought.....

Unfortunately this is yet another movie that has not come to DVD yet. But then how many really good ones do these days? If you get a chance to see it, you won't regret the time you spent sitting in front of the TV. The sequel to this movie is "An Unexpected Life" and just as memorable as this one is.

Amazing because Stockard Channing and the other actors in this movie make a made for tv movie something very special...Not only did I buy this movie, I bought the sequel sight unseen. I give my very highest recomendation to anyone thinking of buying this movie. Do, you will not be disappointed.

This is one of the best movies I have seen. The sad part of the movie is that this happens in real life all to often. This is a great family movie free of violence. Very enjoyable wholesome movie.

I has watched this movie several times and enjoy it each time I do. It would be treat if it could be re-released on DVD!!!

Stockard Channing turned in a brilliant performance. The other cast members likewise turned in good performances. The script flowed smoothly throughout its entirety. If you enjoy family targeted drama that rivets you to the screen, here it is. It will make you smile, make you sad, as well as mad, and then make you tear-up with joy. It shows how life can be rotten and how a villian can change for the better. I give Stockard two thumbs up.

Very enjoyable! Touching family movie with humor and good acting. I saw this movie on TV years ago and I remembered how good it was, so I ordered it. It was great to see it again--even better than I remembered it.

This movie and the follow up were worth watching more than once. I was hoping for a DVD version, but was lucky enough to finally find VHS in good condition for both. Watch the change come over our star, as she learns to love her niece and nephew.

Life is not an easy path to follow and this movie shows us one of the path with a rocky road. Cast selection is outstanding. Stockard Channing and Stephen Collins have a real connection that shows a real bond without the usual romantic mushy stuff.
