Adapted from Elinor Lipman’s novel of the
same name, Helen Hunt makes her feature directing debut with
THEN SHE FOUND ME, a touching story of schoolteacher April
Epner (Hunt) and her very unlikely path towards personal
fulfillment. Following the separation from her husband
(Matthew Broderick) and the death of her adopted mother,
April is contacted by her apparent birth mother (Bette
Midler), who turns out to be a local talk show host Bernice
Graves. As Bernice tries to become the mother to April that
she was never able to be, April seems to find solace in the
arms of the parent of one of her students (Colin Firth),
only to find that the mystery to life’s questions cannot be
solved by a simple revelation.
