Title: a film with heart
Review: I would recommend Carolina as an entertaining, yet thought provoking film that focuses on the true nature of love, in all of its incarnations. It is a wonderful comedy with a great feeling for the relationships among the characters. Punctuated with sharp yet thoughtful dialogue, I found myself wanting more of it when the credits rolled.Carolina is primarily story of the character Carolina (Julia Stiles), the oldest of three motherless (and mostly fatherless) girls being raised by their eccentric grandmother(Shirley MacLaine). Despite the less than ideal circumstances of her childhood, Carolina has managed to pull herself up by her own bootstraps. But instead of leaving her less than perfect family behind her she chooses to embrace them and keep them an integral part of her life. This key plot point is a large part of what makes Carolina head and shoulders above what might otherwise be another mundane romantic comedy.
