Cora Hamilton, a rich 18 year old model breaks away and finds a path she would rather pursue. Throw in an odd romantic interest and you have a story, right?
Cora is pretty enough to be a model and everyone loves her in spite of her digging in to their personal lives. What does that make her? Yup, she's a Mary Sue.
Unfortunately, smiling, laughing and looking pretty doesn't equal good acting. Where's the real emotion? The characters don't seem to mix well and their interactions with each other seem contrived.
The oddball romance comes across as an attempt to make this story more interesting. The protagonist and the male 'love interest' fight, then all the sudden the protagonist wants to compare her non relationship to a married couple by asking the widow if she ever fought with her husband. Keep in mind the protagonist and her 'love interest' did nothing but look at each other since they met. Finally, 53 minutes in to the movie there's some sort of romantic start for the two that somehow justifies him being there.
Would not watch again nor recommend. Sorry.
