Looking for a movie title..thinking Jodie Foster or Drew Barrymore starred in it?

My mom is looking for a movie title. She thinks either Jodie Foster or Drew Barrymore star in it. She became a famous author and is traveling back to her hometown with her college age son to get her ex-husband to sign some papers so the book can be published. There are flashbacks of her life throughout the movie as she is traveling. The son talks to his girlfriend throughout the trip and is afraid to tell his mom that they are moving in together.
