I am watching The Tempest with Molly Ringwald now. Did anyone else here saw it?

I did notice that Molly is wearing braces in the movie and she didn't have the lisp that she had on the Facts of Life. I am sure that Molly was glad to have traveled to New York and Greece instead of trudging around on the set of the Facts of Life for the 3rd season . She named her oldest daughter Miranda, which was the name of her character in the Tempest. Not sure if this was behind the name. Also her 2nd and current husband is a Greek,

Overall, the movie was quite strange and seem to disjointed. We were introduced to characters and later learned on how they all met. This movie did earn Molly a Golden Globe nomination.

I haven't seen the full film, only clips. Is it streaming somewhere?

No. I had to pay 3.99 to rent it for two days via Amazon.com.
