The Sleepy Time Gal
Midlife-crisis-ing woman searches for self while visiting an old flame and conming to grips with her newly-discovered cancer. Meanwhile, adopted girl searches for natural mother while also searching for self. Guess who's the mom? Laconic and very stilted in its dialogue, this indie flick never found its audience, probably because it's extremely hard to relate to any of the characters. Unless, I guess, you're also looking for your natural mother, who happens to be dying.
