Comment
This is a light romantic comedy with Michael J Fox who is a doctor driving from New York to Los Angeles when he has a minor car accident in a small rural town. He punishment is to do community service as the doctor in the hospital. He learns about being a GP, life's priorities and relationships with Julia Warner epitomising all that is good in a small town and with the contrast to Bridget Fonda as the girl wanting to leave for the big city. This is an entertaining story, that is nicely played by Michael J Fox as the young doctor discovering what is important in life with the help of Julie Warner and ably supported by Bridget Fonda. This is well cast, well produced and has a witty script.
