Nestled amidst the distracting blockbusters, we find this vernal gem of a show, greeting us with a friendly title and an involving story that is enjoyably awkward.

Doris’ (Sally Field) days are mundane to say the least. However, with regard to her expertise in data entry and hoarding, the boredom is supplemented with a unique style. She wears colorful outfits, several pairs of retro-framed glasses (some at the same time) and flaunts an innocent wit. It’s this benign persona that creates a theatrical fan base and garners the eye of her new, younger boss, John (Max Greenfield). This has a two-pronged effect as she gains individual confidence but sees candy hearts every time he speaks to her, lending to the film’s central narrative.

The supporting cast strengthens the film altogether. Roz (Tyne Daly), Doris’ best friend, comically nay-says everything and Roz’ grand daughter, Vivian (Isabella Acres), provides Doris with social media and teenage finesse. And the film also boasts some of the funniest stereotypical Brooklynite ribbing.

This is a great story about relationships and sorting your way through life, frontwards and backwards. We enter 4.1 napkins out of 5 for Doris into the Film Clas spreadsheet.
