Featured review
Forgotten Comic Gem
When I saw this film in the theatre the whole audience was laughing out loud. The humor was intelligent and witty, unlike today's market-researched and audience-tailored bombs. It's a film made for adults about adult sensibilities, and important issues we all face sooner or later.
It's not a film that's funny from one moment to the next, but is a poignant tale about a woman (played by Sally Field) dealing with some profound changes in her life. The moments of humor (good, funny, smart moments) are sprinkled in here and there to lighten the tale, and told in a way that will be appreciated by veteran movie goers.
I wish I had more to say about it, but it's been so long since I saw it last that I can't add too much more to the other positive comments, other than to say that I want to see it again :-)
A top notch cast delivers good funny performances for a film making style that's been long forgotten, and wrongfully shelved. One can only hope that a DVD of this film will be forthcoming: A good one from the original negative, letterboxed, and in 5.1 Dolby, and not some low-cost quick-to-market, full-screen, hack cine-transfer job.
DVD RE-SCREENED; "There is no Monica you dumb...*%&$@!!!" I bought the DVD when it came out, and enjoyed reviewing this American remake of a racy Brazilian "sex comedy". Again, I don't have too much more to add to my review or anyone else's other than it was a film made at a different time for a different audience. Today's romantic comedy's geared for adult teenagers are, by comparison, embarrassing. But that's just me.
