Any Day Now

This is a well made drama about an interesting true story. I thought the performances were good and its relatively thought provoking - the discrimination faced by the couple is frustrating and I can certainly imagine it having happened. It is somewhat sentimental - some people may feel its a bit too cheesy for their liking but I wouldn't say its entirely over the top in a forced sentimentality sense. Its sobering and thoughtful and there's also some amusing moments.

wonderful material terribly ruined

Too much melodrama.

Very touching. Surprising ending to boot. This movie really touched me.

A beautiful, genuinely moving piece. This poignant tale of a gay couple attempting to adopt a child in the late '70s drew derision and criticism of mawkishness from some quarters, but it completely worked for me. An emotional powerhouse of a story, showcasing some spectacular work from Alan Cumming, Garret Dillahunt and new-to-film Isaac Leyva. Highly recommended.
