1.0 out of 5 stars Edited Version, October 2, 2004
By R. Thomas (Heartland of America) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This version is eleven minutes shorter than the orginal version based on the information printed on the DVD and listed in the IMDb. I saw this film a long time ago and was looking forward to seeing it again, but was amazed at how much they had cut out of the movie. The DVD packaging does not state that it is an edited version nor does the information provided by Amazon. They made it a totaly different movie with the editing that was done. I do not recommend this version to anyone. The orginal movie deserves better than this chop job.

4.0 out of 5 stars A moving and complex love story, May 7, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Passion Play [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Don't let the sex-kitten cover art or the silly title (it was once called LOVE LETTERS) fool you, this is not an explotation film in anyway, but a touching and thoughtful adult romance. However, that's not to say that it isn't sexy, it is.

The story involves a young DJ (Jamie Lee Curtis, in her best performance) who, losing her mom to illness and unable to connect with her verbally abusive father, finds mysterious love letters that reveal her mother had an affair while married.

Curtis dreams of having the same type of all consuming love and gets her chance when she begins a relationship with a married photographer. But once she sees the man with his wife and children she feels extreme gulit and self-doubt. Is she doing the right thing?

This is a wonderful little film that seemed to go unnoticed when originally released. Curtis bares her soul (and breasts) and the result is an entirely well-rounded character that viewers will love and relate to. Very though-provoking, this film asks some uneasy questions.

1.0 out of 5 stars chopped and ruined, July 27, 2005
anyone who thinks this is a good transfer must be daft. in addition as was mentioned earlier 11 minutes have been cut and as i remember the film they were some of the "best" scenes if you get my drift. if you want to see the original film this is not it. avoid at all costs.
