this movie sneaks up on you...bigger stars, bigger budget would probably have ruined it.. manipulative,corny, sure....but completely absorbing and utterly unforgettable..and Judd Hirsch does his thing, the master reactor, he listens with his eyes,...
I agree wholeheartedly. The handling of the narrative is, in many ways, traditional and very much of a type (one can see Sally Field or Jessica Lange in Nelligan's role). But it works. Beautifully.
I LOVE THIS MOVIE! Great response, “When I can’t stand anymore!”
It IS a great response, isn't it? Such a powerful scene in a movie with some really terrific performances.
GREAT scene! This is where I became impressed with Kate!
Same. First time seeing her, and she's been impressing me with her performances ever since.
