The acting in this was good, on par with what you would expect from the caliber of the cast.
As for the story line, the only creative part was that the widow suffered from acute anxiety, and thus had quite the challenge in order to complete the bargain she made with her late husband.
After that, it was pretty trite.
Recommended for a feel-good family fare.
