    Movie synopsis

    Birdee (Sandra Bullock) is an unassuming housewife whose life is disrupted when her husband (Michael Pare) reveals his infidelity to her on a Jerry Springer-style talk show. She goes home to her mother and the small town in which she grew up--where, of course, everyone knows about her televised marital collapse. Things only get worse as a family tragedy brings her ex-husband back for an official divorce. Meanwhile an old friend, Justin (Harry Connick Jr.), has entered her life, sparking a romance. While Justin's intentions are good, Birdee struggles with the decision to let him fully into her life. This 1998 sleeper was a pet project of leading actress Bullock and became a surprise hit, touching the hearts of its viewers.

    I love this movie, even though it makes me cry. Harry Connick Jr. and Sandra Bullock have such great chemistry together. You can't help but fall in love with them and hope they find their way. A reminder that it's the little things in life. Sometimes you just need to stop and breathe.I

    I grew up watching this movie and it's always been one of my favorites. I'm always searching the TV or Netflix but it's never there so I finally broke down and got the movie! Everytime I watch it, it always touches my heart. Sandra Bullock is one of the best actresses we have!

    I love the soundtrack of this movie. I wasn't particularly thrilled with Harry Connick, jr's role. I wish He would've sung a song for the soundtrack.
