Ray Liotta plays a 1950s jingle composer whose wife dies, leaving him to raise their grieving young daughter (Tina Majorino) alone. Dad hires an African-American housekeeper (Whoopi Goldberg), who helps fill the gap in the child's life--and then Dad's life--and soon an interracial relationship crossing the social mores of the era is underway. Written and directed by Jessie Nelson, the film is a spot-on recreation of '50s suburbia without gratuitous kitsch. Liotta is perfect as a working man of the day, given to white shirts and narrow ties; Goldberg gives one of her finest performances as the levelheaded Corrina; and little Majorino is heartbreakingly effective. But the film entirely bears the stamp of one person, and that's Nelson, who has a wonderfully witty eye and a sophisticated but sensitive approach to the crosscurrents of emotion at play in this story. --Tom Keogh

5 out of 5 stars Whoopi will touch your sole.......2007-07-20

I don't claim to understand how that brilliant mind of Whoopi Goldberg works, but I can assure you it will make you question everything you hold dear. For example, I used to think that Whoopi was a bit of a so-and-so which was confirmed to me when I was at an ALS benefit and met Ted Danson's dry cleaner. He told me that Danson was never really involved with Whoopi because that would violate his religion, but he just used it to promote his screwball comedy "A Fine Mess." I doubt it, as they seemed very much in love. You can usually see it in the body language. Anyway, I love Martin Short, but not Dana Carvey.

5 out of 5 stars Tragically Unknown!.......2007-06-27

It is so sad that very few people have even heard of this movie! It is so charming, heartbreaking and beautiful.
I rented the movie and after watching it I immediately got on Amazon and bought it. It is such an honest and solid movie, it's hard not to like it.
I can't imagine that you won't enjoy at least some aspect of this movie.
It's worth watching. It will soon become a favorite. I promise.

5 out of 5 stars Great Movie.......2007-06-04

4 out of 5 stars WHAT A GREAT MOVIE.......2007-04-04

This movie has it all and that is why I think I like it so much! It has comedy, drama, and musical entertainment also. It is a movie the whole family could watch together. I watched it with my granddaughter last weekend and she enjoyed it as much as I did. It has actually become one of my favorite movies!!
