    A nice twist: Grandma is not sentimental. Her granddaughter is. They disagree over what to keep and what Grandma plans to recycle or donate. Ultimately, as with family members who love one another, Granddaughter has an impact although Grandma may not be able to admit it. Nice, Donna.

    A grandmother and her granddaughter engage in a wonderful exploration of memories and stories as they pack up her belongings. Beautiful.

    What a sweet and touching character study; Hoke captures different sides of wistfulness as she skillfully delineates her two characters in their different stages of life. Lovely.
