Emma (Virginia Madson) and Kala (Jason Momoa) share an attraction. While on Kauai to bury the ashes of the woman who raised her (Lily), he teaches her to slow down - the islander way. She begins to see an alternative to her unfulfilling married life back in Boston. Enter her husband and kids who just fly in from Boston because, um, why? her husband can't handle the kids on his own? Kala asks her to stay with him. She decides to go back to Boston with her family. The way the movie was made, it sure wasn't convincing. Along the way, she meets her birth mother and Lily's sister, and her daughter learns how to dance hula. I would like to see the sequel to this movie. Emma finally does leave her husband, her kids are off at college, and there's nothing keeping her from going back to Kala. But it's been 15 years. What changes has he gone through in the intervening years? The seven degrees? Madson played the Princess Irulan in the 1984 Dune movie. Jason is playing Duncan Idaho in a new Dune movie, which is due out in 2020.
