Good story and nice visuals. It has a lot of neat things in it like old machines and cars, as well as cute farm animals. Mary-Louise Parker (the female lead/psychologist) seemed stilted and odd, but it could have been a result of the poor or bland dialogue present throughout most of the movie. She made some really weird facial and head movements as well though...

This had a lot of TV movie hallmarks but was overall a positive message, though I'm not quite sure what to make of it. Mary-Louise Parker holds her own compared to the legendary Sidney Poitier. Fav scene: lawyer guy thinking he'll convince Sidney to sell his farm but instead changes careers.
