It was an 'alright' movie, but nothing to write home about. I found their 'bonding' to be a little strange, if not bordering on,well, maybe something bordering on some pedophilia type attraction. I don't think I would be the only person that felt a bit uncomfortable during a couple of scenes between the two main characters,wondering where it was leading. I understood the fact that 'Lawrence' was head over heals in love with 'Caroline' as a teenager, but I found it very odd that he had never moved on. It was sweet, yet TOTALLY unbelievable that a normal person would carry a torch (that burned as hot as the day she left), and that he was willing to step in and be "everything" to her and her family after one phone call, out of the blue. I don't know. I guess if someone told me 18 yrs. down the road that they waited on me as I moved on with my life, and was that eager to be my 'everything', I would be putting as much distance between that person and myself AND my child as soon as possible.
