1.0 out of 5 stars Sorry I paid attention to the wrong reviews, February 25, 2008

By	Dr. Karl O. Edwards (Helena, Montana) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Based upon the positive reviews, as a Michelle Pfeiffer fan I purchased this movie. Wow, am I sorry. The movie is actually two poorly edited, non-intertwining SHORT stories. To be truthful, I feel bad for Michelle, who clearly tried her best. As for this being an unrated movie, I can not begin to guess why--it is a GP (at worst, and really just a G) movie. I'd be happy to send you my copy for postage.

Update--1 July 2008: If this review was not helpful to you, I would appreciate learning the reason(s) so I can improve my reviews. My goal is to provide help to potential buyers, not get into any arguments. So, if you only disagree with my opinion, could you please say so in the comments and not indicate that the review was not helpful. Thanks.

4.0 out of 5 stars Darren McGavin Should Not Be Ignored, October 22, 2006

By	John W. Schlatter (Grand Junction, Colorado) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This delightful and mysterious film is two stories in one..Other reviews cover Michelle Pfeiffer's love story which ends in tragedy. I enjoyed the film because of Darren McGavin, it made me miss him all the more..His story is also a semi tragedy but my complaient is that both stories end too soon..But it totally held my attention..It was great to see a young Hector Elsando (sp.?)when he was very young....This was shot in the early stages of Michele Pfeiffer's career and she has never been better..A very interesting film.
