2 mins readAs moviegoers look for something lighthearted this fall, Grow arrives in theaters today offering a cozy mix of humor, heart, and a touch of small-town magic.
The film centers on Dinah Little, played by Golda Rosheuvel, a hardworking farmer in the so-called “Pumpkin Capital of the World.” Her quiet life takes an unexpected turn when her spirited niece Charlie, portrayed by newcomer Priya-Rose Brookwell, comes to stay with her. Charlie has a mysterious connection to nature and believes she can help her aunt win the local pumpkin-growing competition, though her real motivation goes much deeper.
Directed by John McPhail, Grow features a strong supporting cast including Nick Frost, Jane Horrocks, Tim McInnerny, and more. The movie blends gentle humor with heartfelt moments as it explores themes of family, forgiveness, and the courage to start over. While the story is set against the backdrop of a farming town, its emotional core is universal, making it easy for audiences to connect with the characters’ struggles and triumphs.
Early reactions have described Grow as a charming, family-friendly film that celebrates growth in every sense of the word. With its warm color palette, whimsical tone, and light seasonal touch, it feels right at home in theaters this October.
Clocking in at just under two hours and rated PG, Grow is an inviting choice for anyone seeking a wholesome story as the leaves begin to fall. Whether you’re drawn to the film’s rural setting, the quirky competition, or the heartfelt performances, it’s the kind of movie that quietly reminds audiences of the importance of nurturing both plants and people.
