There I was, watching a heartfelt drama about a family suffering the tragic loss of one son, and the TV suddenly switched over to a lame afterschool special. Oh, wait, it was actually same movie. Based in part on the real life story of producer and star Elizabeth Shue, Gracie can’t be faulted for its sincerity. The emotional core of the story is real enough, as Shue really did suffer the loss of a beloved brother, but what follows is lacking in either originality or subtlety.
