At first glance, the new film "After Words," sounds a bit like a modern day reboot of "How Stella Got Her Groove Back." A workaholic, middle-aged woman from California travels to a beautiful foreign country where she meets a handsome local who pursues her romantically. But there are some significant departures from the Stella plot line.  

In "After Words," the protagonist is a librarian, played by Marcia Gay Harden, who goes to Costa Rica to commit suicide. But then she meets up with a local tour guide, Juan, played by Spanish actor Oscar Jaenada.
