Movie #649 ........................."The Waiting Room"

Movie #649 "The Waiting Room" was slow going through most of the film --- some interesting characters, but there were so many scenes that I wondered, "Now why are they showing this scene"? that I can't count. A couple of times I was going to turn it off, but then the characters did something that pulled me in again. I'm glad I saw the end because it was quite satisfactory and the reason I would give it the 3.4 and not just a 3 --- it was a "Sleepless in Seattle" cute ending for a love story. So I guess I'm glad I watched, but you don't have to. Direction could be better. 3.4 out of 5 stars The Waiting Room (2007) NR Single mom Anna (Anne-Marie Duff) breaks off a self-destructive affair with her friend's husband (Rupert Graves) when she meets the man of her dreams -- Stephen (Ralf Little), a handsome nursing home orderly -- in a chance encounter at a train station.
