From NetFlix:

The tables are turned when straight-laced Bessie (Diane Keaton) —
who devotes her life to caring for her chronically ill father (Hume Cronyn) —
must ask her estranged, bohemian sibling (Meryl Streep) for help after
Bessie suffers a health catastrophe. The film is a first-class adaptation of
Scott McPherson’s play, with a young Leonardo DiCaprio holding his
own among a heavyweight cast that includes Robert De Niro and Gwen Verdon.

The ensemble work is good. I laughed out loud in spots. It’s amazing to see formerly
sexy red-headed Gwen Verdon (Damn Yankees!) as “dotty old Aunt Ruth”. The
character transformations (especially Meryl Streep) are convincing.

And yes, it was one of those “#$%^# Chick Flick Tear Jerkers”.
