Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe name Deux Soeurs is displayed at the perfume counter where Tish works. Deux Soeurs is not a known parfumerie, but Deux Soeurs, LLC is credited as the film's copyright holder. The story also features two pairs of sisters.
- GoofsWhen Tish is waiting on a subway platform where the 1960s-style enamel column plates say that the station is 135th St (probably on the 8th Ave line rather than on the Lenox Ave line). However, the mosaic on the wall above the tracks features a capital 'B' -- suggesting that filming may have taken place in the now-closed-off part of the Bowery station on the Nassau St line.
- Quotes
Sharon Rivers: I don't want to sound foolish, but remember love is what brought you here. And if you've trusted love this far, don't panic now. Trust it all the way.

Featured review
Deep, intense, perhaps just a little slow.
I can't believe this was only on for two hours, I genuinely felt as if it had been on for over three, it feels incredibly long.
It's powerful story, but I felt that some of the bite of it doesn't quite cut through, because of the pacing. Every single scene feels so drawn out, I don't mean in an artistic way, I mean in terms of editing.
Regina King is tremendous, what a truly wonderful talent, truly does steal the show.
It looks amazing, and the music throughout is just incredible, I instantly had to visit many of the tracks used, this really showed what music can do in a movie.
Maybe on a different day I could have gotten into it better, I enjoyed it, just found it too slow. 6/10.
