The revelation forces Kate to come to terms with letting her mother be happy with someone besides herself at the same time that she’s dealing with her own love life and career.
As Diane falls deeper in love, Kate worries that their close-knit relationship will be forever changed—and not for the better; so, she subconsciously tries to sabotage the wedding plans (despite officiating it). While Kate tries to get her mom to slow down and reconsider this obvious calamitous life decision, she finds herself falling for her handsome neighbor, Josh (Andrew Richardson)— "the right guy at the totally wrong time."
The film is co-produced by MarVista and Particular Crowd with a script written by Karen Bloch Morse (Ice Castles).
Downtown Cranford is hosting a contest on Facebook and is asking residents to comment all the Cranford locations they recognize in the trailer. Those who comment will be entered to win a $25 Downtown Cranford gift card.
