The first thing I want to refer to is some other comments about this movie. The writers ask why this is not getting a wider distribution. Months ago I saw George Hamilton on a talk show with a cut from My One and Only. That day I made a mental note to see it when it came out. As time went along I forgot about it. Then, by accident I saw a list of movies appearing at a theater and there it was. We were out of town and the theater was in a pretty remote place. Our home is near a major chain theater, not showing the movie. In fact, in our large metro area there is no sign of it. I checked with a friend in a town of several megaplexes. Same story there. This movie deserves to be seen. From what I've read, it's very loosely based on a time in George Hamilton's life as a young teen. (He is not in this movie, not even as a cameo.) Renee Zellweger plays the unlikely role of mother to two teen sons. She is a woman who is enigmatic and not a homebody. She is both guided by social conventions and very Bohemian in her own way. Kevin Bacon is also cast in a different light from parts we'd expect to see him in. He is quite a cad as an absentee father. The road trip on which we are taken has ups and downs as mom and sons ride in a new Cadillac convertible circa 1950's. Baltimore is the actual movie background made to appear as numerous other cities in other states. What will be the next stop along the way? Who will enter the lives of these three people? How will they get along as their fortunes rise and fall? These are the questions that develop as we get to know them and like them. The elements are sometimes tragic and sometimes comedic or a mixture of both. It's definitely a human interest story.

Really enjoyed this story about an unusual family that got more interesting as the movie moved along on their journey from New York City to end eventually in Hollywood, California. To learn in the end that this may have been based on some real life adventures of actor George Hamilton was especially enjoyable; and, its not spoiling or taking away anything from this story to make that fact known here. You will enjoy watching how this story evolves whether or not you believe its really about George Hamilton. The separation of a middle age mother from her cheating husband has a familiar ring; but, how she and her two sons cope with her disconnection from her husband's money and support in 1953 is a sometimes funny and sad story to watch develop.

In the Genre it clearly says: Comedy, with all the letters. This is not a comedy. If this is a comedy, then i'm a skyscraper! This is a drama, a decent one, but i was going for a Comedy not a drama... I think that is bad for the producers or whoever is in charge to call this a comedy when in fact, is very far from that. As for the film itself, i kinda liked it. It tells a life story of a strong women and her growing children, as she tries to ensure their future as she separates from her cheating husband. In the way, they go through many trials which they try to overcome, as they grow stronger and more united as family. And i'm sorry to keep saying this, but not once during the film i laughed, cause it's NOT a COMEDY, which annoys me...

Sweetie and I were childless last night so we sneaked out to see girlfriend Renee Zellweger's latest movie, "My One and Only." It also has Kevin Bacon playing her no account philandering, band leader husband. I didn't know anything about the movie so I was expecting a romantic comedy. I like those, in moderation, especially good ones but this was different. I am not sure how to classify the movie. Its kind of like a cross between a road movie, romantic comedy, coming of age, and biography. Basically Zellweger plays the part of Anne Devreaux who dumps her husband, played by Kevin Bacon and sets off across America with her two teenage sons in search of a new husband. She gets humiliated, arrested, and dumped a bunch of times but always keeps her chin up. I loved it. Its a great movie. Of course, my girlfriend Renee could play the lead role in Lassie Come Home and I would love it. I give this a big four stars out of four. It is a great date movie.

Renew Zellweger stars as actor George Hamilton's mother in the story of what happened when Hamilton 's parents divorced and she began what amounted to an extended road trip to find someone to take care of her and her two boys. I'm kind of at a loss as to why I should care about this story. Yes I like George Hamilton and I've always been curious about his story, but for whatever reason the story as told here is less than compelling. I really didn't care. Personally I don't know what Merv Griffin saw in the story that he shepherded the film along over the several years before his death. In all honesty if it wasn't for the actors, Zellweger and the two young men playing her sons, I would have walked out. The performances are quite good and make the film seeing, though I'd wait for cable or DVD.

or sort of a true story. The movie doesn't tell you in the beginning that it is based on a real person, but at the end of the film we learn one of the characters is a real person whom became an actor. The movie has funny and dramatic parts. It's about a wife, Anne Deveraux, whom is tired of her cheating husband. So she takes her two teen sons and they go on a road trip. She goes to Boston, Pittsburg, ST. Louis, in search of a new husband. She runs into some old flames, but none of them are really interested in a middle aged woman with two kids. She finally goes to Los Angles, where at the end of the film, one of her kids becomes an actor. He changes his last name to Hamilton and becomes known as George Hamilton. FINAL VERDICT: OK, worth checking out on cable.

How many stories like this have we seen so far: mother (Renee Zelweger) finds out that her husband (Kevin Bacon) is cheating on her and leaves him. Obviously, the children go with her. She thinks she will be able to go to another town nearby and find herself a new husband, wealthy enough to sustain the family. Travelling from city to city, and as many things happen to them, she cannot find anyone to 'sign the deal.' The further away they go from NY, the more the mother learns about her family and herself. Very conventional, this is a road film where the family is moving from one coast to the other (NY to LA). The story is being told from the point of view of the youngest son. As the narrator, he tells us what he thinks about his mother, family relations, the trip, etc. A good family/drama movie. But only good. 5/10*.

Loncraine's 'My One and Only' is an adaptation of soap actor George Hamilton's mother, Anne. After catching her husband in the act of infidelity, Anne Deveraux takes off with her two teen sons and embarks on an adventurous road-trip hoping to find a man who would take care of them. While Anne's attempts fail, she remains high-spirited and hopeful through her struggles until she learns a most valuable lesson, that the best person to take care of you is you. Writer Charlie Peters has wonderfully encrusted this period piece with plenty of humour that keeps the viewer amused all the way. The balance between humour and drama is well maintained as the story flows smoothly. While the cross country landscape is stunning to look at, Loncraine brilliantly captures the atmosphere of the 50s through the sets, setups, costumes, languages and music. Renee Zellweger yet again proves what a tremendously gifted actress she is. She delivers another spirited performance as Anne Deveraux, a lady in the truest sense, and beautifully carries the role. Logan Lerman is wooden for the most parts. Kevin Bacon looks burned out and exhausted but that works for the character. Many familiar actors like Nick Stahl, Steven Webber and David Koechner, make appearances and leave a strong impression. Unfortunately, 'My One and Only' hasn't gained the recognition it deserved and thus it remains an under-appreciated gem. I couldn't recommend it enough and one can enjoy it with the entire family.

This film is about a woman who leaves her unfaithful husband and goes around the country to find another husband. "My One and Only" may be a plain story but it is surprisingly engaging. The story is told very well, that it draws me and makes me feel a part of the family. The misfortunes that are bestowed upon Anne Deveraux is sad but mysteriously have a light hearted tone to it. Her determination to search for a new life is inspiring, I admire her courage and her drive to break out of her comfort zone. The two sons are acted well; George successfully radiates a confident and mature feel while Robbie shines as an effeminate individual that makes me smile in several scenes. I enjoyed watching "My One and Only", as it provides an engaging and touching reflection of family and romantic relationships.
