This is one of those quiet dramas that I enjoy watching as a counterbalance to the blockbusters and bigger budget offerings. It was entertaining and well acted by the lead, and who says only young people should be shown try to overcome [physical and mental obstacles? Apparently the elderly actress didn’t have anyone filling in for her during the hiking and climbing scenes. Good for her. To be honest, it is not one that will stand out in my memory, that I will seek out at a later date thinking, “I really should watch that again.” But if it were to show up on one of my streaming channels, I could see myself saying, “Why not?”
