Movies like this are rarely made anymore because audiences just won't support them anymore. But, more films like this should be made and audiences need to support them because they have so much goodness in them, simple truths, and an innocence that the world needs to rediscover.
This is a sweet sedimental story, simple, caring, and more. It speaks and shows a wonderful side of people that we just don't seem to see enough of anymore. It makes one wish that you lived in a small town like this, had friends and neighbors and acquaintances as depicted. It may all be wishful thinking, but the world would be a better place, a much better place if life was as shown in this sweet sedimental story.
