Synopsis – What to Expect from “Where the Heart Is”
Where the Heart Is is a 2000 romantic drama directed by Matt Williams and starring Natalie Portman, Ashley Judd, and Stockard Channing. The film follows Novalee Nation (Portman), a pregnant seventeen-year-old who is abandoned by her boyfriend at a Walmart in Oklahoma. With nowhere else to go, Novalee takes shelter in the store and is eventually discovered by the store manager, Forney Hull (Dylan Bruno). Forney takes Novalee in and helps her through the difficult months of her pregnancy, while also introducing her to the town’s quirky characters, including the eccentric Sister Husband (Channing), and the kind-hearted Lexie Coop (Judd).
As Novalee adjusts to life in the small town, she begins to realize what it means to be part of a community and to have a real home. She also forms a strong bond with Forney, and the two eventually fall in love. However, Novalee’s past soon catches up with her in the form of her ex-boyfriend, who is determined to take their baby away from her. With the help of her newfound friends, Novalee must fight to keep her baby and to find a place where she can truly call home.
Where the Heart Is is a heartwarming story about the power of love and the importance of family. It is an uplifting tale of resilience and hope, and a reminder that everyone deserves a place to call
