About this episode
"Once, there was this day... this one day when... everyone realized they needed each other."
Thanksgiving is just around the corner, so The Wives Colangelo are discussing a rare festive film. Most people remember PIECES OF APRIL for the cover art of an alternative Katie Holmes with choppy bangs and box-dyed red hair, but few remember the micro-budget charm of a story about an estranged young woman attempting to host what might be the last holiday she ever has with her family before her mother passes from cancer. With an Oscar-nominated performance from Patricia Clarkson and a message of how family can go beyond your blood relatives, let PIECES OF APRIL be the warm hug you need ahead of what may be a tumultuous holiday season with your own family.
BONUS: Poppa Colangelo stops by to tell a little family story! (Stay for the end of episode button, trust us.)
