Tumbleweeds (1999)
4/10
Insubstantial if well-acted comedy
27 March 2000
Likeable but insubstantial comedy about a mother and daughter bonding as the mother goes from one relationship to another. A few moments of genuine comedy, such as when she quits her job and calls the boss for everything, or instructs her daughter on the art of kissing (using an apple as a prop) or has knockabout fun demystifying sanitary towels. Ultimately the woman is such a dedicated empty head though that no real man would bother long anyway, so her story lacks pathos.
