Then She Found Me (R)

Quicklook Rating★★½

synopsis

Following the separation from her husband and the death of her adopted mother, schoolteacher April Epner is contacted by her apparent birth mother, who turns out to be a local talk show host Bernice Graves. As Bernice tries to become the mother to April that she was never able to be, April seems to find solace in the arms of the parent of one of her students (Colin Firth), only to find that the mystery to life's questions cannot be solved by a simple revelation.

MovieGoer Review

Helen Hunt tries to prove she can do it all--co-writing, directing, co-producing and starring--in this heartfelt dramedy about a schoolteacher in mid-life crisis. It's not ''as good as it gets'' but commendable nonetheless.
