Summary
When nine-year-old Josephine (Samantha Weinstein) meets her mother's new boyfriend Gerry, she immediately wants him out of the picture and agrees to enter into a playful competition with him over her Mom. The stakes are high -- if she wins, Gerry agrees to stop seeing her mother, but if he wins, she must be nice to him. But as the competition progresses, Josephine begins to learn the big lesson that life doesn't always deliver in the way she wants it.
Movie Reviews
This is an absolute must-see! Sweet, touching, and sad.An all too accurate commentary on the sorry state of society,
when even a 9 year old girl knows it isn't socially acceptable
for her to be friends with a man.
