Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Saving Grace
The movie starts as a small-town English widow find that she is facing troubles after her cheating husband's suicide. After seeing her struggle her gardener has an idea how to use her gardening expertise to get some quick monies for both of them.

The widow and the gardener embark on growing/selling a large "one time crop" of cannabis. While they think no one in the town is aware of their project they are all actually rooting for them.

Many funny scenes related to the growing of the plants from accidentally using some dried leaves and seeds as tea, to the light show their hydroponics growing gives the town.
