Written by Glenn German and Adam Rodgers, the film follows a man and a woman as they meet and fall in love while taking their children on a college tour.

[3] Edith Martin and her highly strung daughter Audrey, and George Hartman and his unmotivated son Conrad, arrive for a campus tour of the quaint Middleton College led by junior "dingleberry" Justin.

Audrey has tea with Emerson, while Conrad meets Boneyard Sims, who runs the campus radio station.

[4] In April 2012, it was reported that Vera Farmiga and Andy García had been cast in the film as Edith Martin and George Hartman, respectively.

[5] In June 2012, it was announced that Taissa Farmiga, Spencer Lofranco, and Nicholas Braun had been cast in the film, portraying Audrey Martin, Conrad Hartman, and Justin the admissions tour guide, respectively.

At Middleton: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack was released in the United States on September 9, 2014, by Perseverance Records in digital download and physical formats.

[24] Susan Wloszczyna of RogerEbert.com wrote, "At Middleton is just the sort of trite if inoffensive diversion that barely tiptoes into theaters before landing in the cable and video on-demand listings.

And Garcia and Farmiga, as good as they can be in the right roles, aren't doing themselves or their careers any favors with this sort of C-level effort.

But watching George and Edith cavort in slo-mo while being drenched in a campus fountain is the antithesis of enjoying Annie Hall and Alvy Singer as those classic polar opposites engage in battle against a runaway lobster.

A daylong romance starring Andy García and Vera Farmiga as two parents who meet cute while their kids tour the same small college, it takes a relatively undistinguished premise and sets itself apart with details that ring true.

"[26] Neil Genzlinger of The New York Times gave the film a positive review, writing, "Some advance publicity is describing At Middleton as a romantic comedy, but that is too simplistic a label for this delicate, restrained movie.

Yes, it's full of droll humor, but it's also a bittersweet portrait of two people, who, in the process of helping their children choose a college, confront the emptiness of their respective marriages.

Audrey is her serious, literary-minded daughter, nicely played by Farmiga's real-life sister Taissa, who shares Vera's luminous presence on screen.

George (Garcia) is a cardiac surgeon, nattily uptight in his crisp white shirt and bow tie.

Together, Garcia and Farmiga are a sweetheart couple whose mild flirtation makes the time spent At Middleton bearable.
