T[H]is little film, written and directed by Amos Kollek, tries hard to be charming but succeeds only occasionally. It tells two roughly parallel relationship stories. Front and center are winsome diner waitress Bella (Anna Thomson) and slow-to-mature Bruno (Jamie Harris). They meet on a blind date and begin a cautious courtship – one complicated by Bella's early untruthful declaration that she "hates kids," unaware that Bruno recently had two – one his, one not – dumped in his lap by his ex-wife. She makes this statement because one of her friends said that to do otherwise would scare Bruno off.
