Songs in Ordinary Time is a 2000 American made-for-television drama film starring Sissy Spacek and Beau Bridges.

It is an adaptation of the book Songs in Ordinary Time written by Mary McGarry Morris.

Songs in Ordinary Time was entirely shot in Nova Scotia, Canada due to financial reasons.

In Vermont in the 1960s, Mary Fermoyle, a divorced woman with three children to raise, allows the secretive Omar Duvall to enter her life.

But in a way the reason why you get lost in "Songs in Ordinary Time" is because of who is in it as Sissy Spacek and Beau Bridges deliver such wonderful characters that you get caught up in their performances rather than what is going on.
