Overview
A conservative lawyer named Diane takes her two teenage children Jake and Zoe to meet their estranged, hippie grandmother in Woodstock after her husband asks for a divorce.
Does this movie have flaws? Hell yes. At the fifteen minute mark, you know exactly how the movie is going to play out. And we are supposed to believe that a grown woman is upset that her mother (who was recently dumped by her father) kisses another man? But alas… I really loved the movie. Jane Fonda is a force of nature. I couldn’t take my eyes off of her. The movie had a ton of great themes that centered around peace, love and understanding. To quote Bowling for Soup, all we need is love and beer.
