Did anyone see this movie last night? It aired on CBS at 9 p.m. I had seen previews for it for weeks and meant to watch it. Sure looked like a good movie, for a change. And I forgot to tape it! I'm hoping CBS re-airs it.
Maybe it wasn't even that good afterall. If any here watched it, please post your thoughts.

Just from the few previews I saw, it looked like a really good movie. Something you'd see on PBS maybe.
Yes I remember when MF was on ER. A very small part if I remember correctly, a friend of Kerry's old girlfriend? The other doc at the hospital? Something like that.

Yup, that was it. 
And her character's name was Christy and the other was Kate -- both names inspired by Elizabeth Mitchell's (Dr. Legaspi) own sisters' names.
Darn, that's right. I do remember seeing the previews. I recognized America Ferrera as the starring role in "Real Women Have Curves." Great movie in the way that it portrays a typical Hispanic mother-daughter relationship (at least, based on a few that I've seen). Only problem was that the only other film that I've see the actress who plays the mom in was "Selena." She played Selena's fan club president/killer Yolanda Saldivar.
Sorry, got sidetracked.
Maybe "Plainsong" will rerun during the summer.
