If you have any curiosity at all about how a fellow like George Hamilton became a fellow like George Hamilton, My One and Only answers the question by looking, fondly, at his primary caregiver.

A grand, colorful coming-of-age story with a candy box color palette and a standout performance by Renee Zellweger. It's a great story and a great crowd-pleaser.
