Where the Heart Is (2000)

Cast: Natalie Portman (Novalee Nation), Ashley Judd (Lexie Coop), Stockard Channing (Thelma 'Sister' Husband), Joan Cusack (Ruth Meyers), James Frain (Forney Hull)
For complete info, see IMDb's Where the Heart Is page.

A pregnant 17-year-old who pulls her life together after being abandoned at a Wal-Mart by her boyfriend. Sounds like a Jerry Springer show, doesn't it? In spite of the sensational nature of Where the Heart Is, the story is touching. It's definitely a bit sappy in parts, but this bitter-sweet story is worth a look. The cast is amazing and the story is well presented.

Grade: B
