Goofs

In this case, it would not be possible to take another person on an already booked trip out of the country. Non-refundable tickets are also Non-transferable, tickets are booked of the name of the person traveling, so it would not be possible to have her mother go, unless the ticket were completely cancelled and rebooked.

Really sad

Feel so sorry for Goldie she is such a good actress & to be in such a boring movie is just sad. She waited 15 years to make a movie, I think she should have waited a little longer. The attempt at humor was pathetic & strained. I sure wish I hadn't wasted my money on this. First time I have seen this many people leave a theater before the movie was done.
