Review of Forever Lulu

Forever Lulu (2000)
6/10
Crazy in California

In "Forever Lulu", an almost "chick flick", Griffith plays a walk-away from a mental hospital who, wanting to recapture a 16 year old lost romance, calls her ex-boyfriend and tells him they have a son. What ensues is a pleasing blend of comedy and drama which is just unpredictable enough to maintain viewer interest through the film's many contrivances. Though an obvious emotional button pusher, "Forever Lulu" is technically and artistically well made with solid performances by all. A tour-de-force by Griffith and an enjoyable watch which builds to a "feel good" conclusion.
