The Meddler (2015)
7/10
Pleasant story about adjusting to a new life
21 January 2017
This is a watchable movie about a recent widow who moves from East to West Coast to be with her only daughter who is preoccupied with her screen writing career and her failed romance.

She fills the void in her life by helping out at the hospital and helping her daughter's friends wedding and babysitting.

The story is touching without being overly sentimental. Nothing too dramatic happens so it's realistic enough.

Susan Sarandon looks very young still. This isn't an eccentric character like Sally Field in Hello my name is Doris. Susan is still quite attractive hence lots of men interested in her in the movie. Her suitor is played by JK Simmons. Rose Byrne plays her daughter.

Worth one watch.
