Bonds are forcibly remade against dramatic resistance between the sisters, while in the meantime she finds a special connection with Hank, who sees a world beyond the one his mother has given him.
DeNiro as the doctor is dependable, and while Streep is a bit hard to believe as the trailer trash wife, some of Hollywood's best talents fail to disappoint in what could have been boring in lesser hands.
