Why don’t they make more movies like this? There was no car chase, no removal of heads or other body parts with accompanying copious blood flow, no evil plot to destroy the world (Well, I do have to admit a couple of lobsters did meet their maker). I absolutely loved it.
Why? Okay. First of all, I love butter, I mean, I really really do. Both heroines of this movie love butter. That is almost enough reason alone for me to love this movie – but there’s more. This movie is about two women who had a dream, set a goal, and followed through despite difficulties, set-backs and naysayers. They each also had people – actually these people were MEN (can you believe that!), actually these people were their husbands (seriously!) who supported them, encouraged them, and rejoiced with them as they each reached their goal and found even more success than their wildest dreams.
I left this based on true events movie feeling not only entertained, but uplifted. I just wish there were more movies available to see like this. Okay, it was kinda a chick flick but I have seen enough car chases to last me 10 lifetimes.

Hi Jennifer;
Ok. I’m going to have to see this movie. I too love butter – and will only cook with the real thing. Living in a household with 6 testosterone-laden males, I have seen enough car chases for my life-time as well. I think I will take my daughter to see this movie.
You said, “these people . . . supported them, encouraged them, and rejoiced with them as they each reached their goal and found even more success than their wildest dreams.”
I hope that comes true for you as well!
