Description:
Joey Coalter (William Petersen, TV's "C.S.I.: Crime Scene Investigation") is a restless adventurer who's been married for nearly thirteen years to his high-school sweetheart, Christine (Sissy Spacek, Coal Miner's Daughter), but has been working odd jobs that have kept him away from home nearly the whole time. Fed up with her husband's wandering ways, Chris files for divorce and makes plans to marry a local, and reliable, businessman. Completely stunned when he receives a wedding invitation (secretly sent by their daughter, Beth), Joey rushes home to try to win back his wife in this true-to-life romantic comedy.

You don't need to be a rocket scientist to enjoy this movie. The description of the movie is listed with the movie. I enjoyed it because it kept me connected to the characters emotionally. Joey Coalter(William Petersen)has an itch to travel and see knew places. He takes care of his family by providing for them. He remembers birthdays and sent a bike to his daughter Beth(Olivia Burnette).The only problem is he's neveer there. His wife Christie(Sissy Spacek) realizes that in the 12 years ... Read More

This was a really great film! It had a bittersweet ending and Petersen was wonderful as usual in the role of Joey Coalter. The young girl who played his daughter Beth did a great job too. I remember her from the TV show The Torkelsons. I recommend this film to anyone who enjoys romantic comedies.

"Hard Promises" is a bit like a doing a rural remake of "A Tree Grows In Brooklyn" into which you incorporate the basic premise of "Sweet Home Alabama". While not in the same league as the former, it is considerably less offensive than the latter-which it may have inspired.
Billed as a romantic "comedy", the film contains little humor (unless you are still amused by small town stock characters) and nothing profound in the romance department. But like "A Tree Grows In Brooklyn" it is about ... Read More

Aimlessness presents the notion of being adrift without any direct purpose, or ambition, while it could also symbolize a nomadic lifestyle of living from day to day. Either case lacks direction, which often originates within a dreamy vision without a direct goal such as the wonder of what a hill hides on the other side. Once the initial curiosity has been put to rest, a new fascination arises from what lies beyond the next hill. The drifty mind also emerges through students' difficulty in paying attention ...

The chemistry of the actors in this movie make the sweet little love story really a gem. Sissy Spacek is a teacher ready to get re-married when her daughter sends a wedding invitation to William Peterson, the ex. He has been a drifter following jobs all over the country and doesn't even know he's divorced. He rushes back to win Sissy back with comic results. They find they still have a spark for each other. Their daughter just wants her family back and this lends a touch of bitter-sweeetness to the movie. Mare ... Read More
