Reception

Ramin Zahed from Variety magazine gave the film a mixed review, stating: "Watching the sentimental telepic “The Color of Love: Jacey’s Story,” feels a lot like visiting your grandma and eating her homemade pie. The experience is terribly predictable, but you go through with it, because of the comfort it offers."[1]

For her performance in "The Color of Love: Jacey's Story", Gena Rowlands was nominated for one Primetime Emmy Award in the category of "Outstanding Lead Actress in a Miniseries or a Movie".[2][3] The movie was also nominated for two Satellite Awards.
