There's a lot to like in this movie: the design, the pies, the waitresses, the pies, Andy Griffith, the pies, but what I don't like cancels out what I did like, which is why I only gave the film three stars. Jenna's (Kerri Russell) husband Earl (Jeremy Sisto) is the flattest character I have ever seen. I had childhood paperdolls more rebust than this guy. Why is he so clingy? Why, in the name of everything that's good, did she marry the bastard? At one point, on a phone conversation, Jenna mentions that Earl changed since their nuptuals, but that's all we see. This was such an obvious flaw, I felt a little dumb not turning the movie off, but those pies... Thus inspired, I baked an apple tart the next day, so it's a somehow a significant film, even if just to inspire a patiserrie.
