Editorial Reviews

A bittersweet look at first love through the eyes of Alice, a precocious 10-year-old. Set in 1961, the film compares Alice's prosaic life to that of her glamorous, "fast" 16-year-old neighbor Sheryl.

This is a wonderful movie set in the 50's about a little girl who adores her neighbor who lives across the street. A GREAT movie that should be released on DVD so that everyone can enjoy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Work of Genius, July 28, 2000

This review is from: That Night [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I bought this a few days ago and so far I've watched it with my eleven year old daughter 3 times, and she has invited a half dozen freinds over, all of whom love it. Having grown up in the 50's I find this a masterpiece. Finally I got to show my daughter a real 1949 Mercury, my absolutely favorite all-time car! One of Juliette Lewis' best roles and Elisa Dushku, the actress who plays 10 year old Allie is magical. There is a dancing scene near the pier with C. Thomas Howell, Christy's punk boyfriend Ricky, that makes me cry every time. The birthday party is heartbreaking as well, my daughter had to ask how you play spin-the-bottle. The set design were masterful,with stop frame I recognize hundreds of things from my youth. The movie is an absolute work of genius!

This review is from: That Night [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Like everyone else I agree that this is a great film. One of the few I can watch again and again......but like everyone else I too have been searching for the title song Ruler of my Heart by Lisa Fischer and want to say I found it on Kazaa......good luck.
