Per her mother's last wish, an 8 year old girl sets out to reunite her father with his college best friend who was in love with him.
Sinekatalog’s take
A shiny, sentimental romance about friendship, grief and second chances, laced with campus nostalgia and big song numbers. The emotions are broad and the plotting sugary, but it is made with undeniable warmth. A nostalgic treat for fans of lavish musical love stories.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
