Hottoceame The Age of Commercialism

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

dallaswhiskey Well, I only watched it because Laura Leighton is in it, and as it turned out, that is the only reason to watch this TV movie. Leighton is believable and natural in the starring role and gorgeous as always. That's what the four stars are for.Other than that, there is very little to it. I didn't think any of the characters had real depth. I found the male lead character rather boring. The story of Cate finding out more about her father and his motives falls short and unsatisfactory. Subplots involve a slight marital conflict and a falling out of two best friends, but there's not a lot to those either. Oh, and the posh gay guy is not sharp enough a dresser for a posh gay guy.The story takes place in a village that appears to be an Irish settlement in the state of Massachusetts, which adds a nice different flavour.

SnoopyStyle In 1982 New Kerry, Massachusetts, young Cate's life is turned upside-down when her mother died. She is sent away to live with relatives. It's 2008. Cate Madighan (Laura Leighton) is a high powered magazine editor in NYC. She's preparing to marry older media tycoon Stewart who doesn't want any more kids. She is sent a music box from her father and a letter asking her to scatter his ashes in New Kerry. She is flustered and reluctantly goes on the quest with her assistant Jeffrey. She reconnects with childhood friend. She has to patch up estranged friends Cavanaugh and Donahue for her father. She falls for small town lawyer Connor Bailey.It's big city girl who discovers small town charms. There is some functional personal drama. The romantic leads are solid but there is limited heat. The childhood friend could have been a great character but they need a higher caliber actress. The two old geezers could be fun but they don't go there. There is no edge to the dialog and no tension in the drama. This is rather predictable and flat.

edwagreen Appealing television film where a woman, engaged to an older man, finds sudden love when her estranged father dies and she returns to the town of her birth to scatter his ashes.Angered over the fact that her father never came back to her, after the death of her mother, the embittered young woman returns to show that she is the better person than he is.While in this small Massachusetts town, she finds romance as well as her friend, married to a man consumed by weather reports, and her dad's friends feuding.This is a story of 2 people falling in love and the realization that life is more than just working.

CrowingSoul While slightly predictable, Daniel's Daughter is a sleepy and sweet drama focusing on finding the peace with past and present decisions. High powered New York Magazine editor Cate Madighan (Laura Leighton) is living the good life - great job, a marriage on the cards and plenty of wealth but her life as she knows it comes crashing down when she gets news of her father's passing. Having abandoned her as a child, Cate plans on heading to her home town for a brief visit to tie up loose ends only to find herself drawn in by old friends, new love interests and the last wishes of her dead father which make Cate question her current life back in New York.
