In the late 1970s, when Marco (Isaac Leyva), a teenager with down syndrome who's been abandoned by his mother, is taken in by committed couple Rudy (Alan Cumming) and Paul (Garret Dillahunt), he finds in them the family he's never had. However, when their unconventional living arrangement is discovered by the authorities, Rudy and Paul must fight a biased legal system to adopt the child they have come to love as their own.

Critic Reviews
-
Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune
Too much of "Any Day Now" founders in cliche and predictable table-turning and point-scoring instead of building a set of complicated characters at odds with a biased system.
-
Claude Peck, Minneapolis Star Tribune
Switches between a few primary modes -- agenda-mentary, romance, courtroom drama, tearjerker -- without engaging very convincingly in any of them.
-
John Anderson, Newsday
Generally abysmal.
-
Stephen Whitty, Newark Star-Ledger
Gets its point across, and its sad drama. And it spotlights a marvelous performance by Alan Cumming.
-
Farran Smith Nehme, New York Post
Cumming is wonderful, and you know something? Trying a little understanding sure doesn't hurt.
