OFFICAL SELECTION: Sundance Film Festival
In this funny and moving film, Harriet Lauler (Shirley
MacLaine) is a once-successful businesswoman in tight control of every aspect
of her life. As she reflects upon her accomplishments, she's suddenly inspired
to engage a young local writer, Anne Sherman (Amanda Seyfried), to pen her
life's story. When the initial result doesn’t meet Harriet's high expectations,
she sets out to reshape the way she is remembered, with Anne dragged along as
an unwilling accomplice. As the journey unfolds, the two women develop a unique
bond which alters not only Harriet’s legacy, but also Anne’s future.
