Fine Line is trying to lure the same female viewers that embraced Enchanted April to htis mediocre comedy-mystery, starring Mia Farrow in her first non-Wood Allen picture; Joan Plowright as a domineering widow steals the show--again.

Fun for the whole family. Add a star if you're both Irish and widowed.

A diverting and well-acted English film with just the right mix of comedy and mystery.
