About a writer (Diane Keaton) who ends up having to baby-sit her daughters boyfriend (Jack Nicholson) after having a heart attack in her summer home. Erica (Diane) is an uptight divorced playwright who is in her 50’s and set in her ways. Harry (Jack) (I think maybe actually playing himself) plays an older financially successful man who enjoys the company of MUCH younger women…..MANY!

Okay, does that sound like a recipe for romance? I think not. But as the movie progress’ and they get to know each other, it’s a nice meeting of the minds. Julian (Keanu Reeves) who plays Harry’s doctor has a crush on Erica and so the love triangle begins. This is a feel good movie for any single 50 something female who thinks it may be too late to find late love. Great acting by all, I’m sure there will be some Oscar buzz on these people again.

I really enjoyed Frances’ character (Zoe, Erica’s sister/best friend). That was my biggest disappointment was we didn’t see enough of her. I love Frances and the characters she plays. She plays all to the fullest and she is so believable/loveable. I really wish we saw more of her. But what we did see of her, was very important and funny.
