thiago S @Thiagostone May 6 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Michael S @Mike2025564 Dec 21 I can’t believe the poor reviews this film has gotten, especially the ridiculous 1 star review! It really is an outstanding story with great acting and a beautiful setting. Maybe real life dramas about real people just don’t hit home with the general populace anymore? See more 05/15/2022 A story of woman (Gussie) - a successful photographer - who visits her hometown and reconnects with her former boyfriend (Henry), who is now married. The tone of the movie is a bit too melodramatic; despite the tone, it ends ups addressing varied issues. Where is one the happiest? With whom? And doing what? Whoever left their hometown for something bigger can relate to the movie. There's some allusion to the woman's own selfishness. In fact, both lovers can be considered rather self-centered throughout the movie - with little space for anyone else's perspective. Sissy Spacek is really in her comfort zone in the role of that woman. And she seems to gather both the innocence and the ambition. Kevin Kline gets very intense and passionate... but oh boy! How frequently we have to see his intense stares... A bit overused, I'd day. All in all, it has the melodramatic tone of a soap opera. And "Jolene don't ever steal my man" could be a nice sound track... Yet, Henry's wife is surprisingly pragmatic. And she perhaps offers the best insight into her husband' s conflict. Likewise, Gussie's father also brings some important insight over his daughter. The movie is not terribly long, so it never gets too boring See more jon c 04/26/2021 Roses are red, violets are blue true love is strong but can run eschew Kevin Kline and Sissy Spacek star as young lovers Gussie and Henry trying to withstand the passing of time Gussie's a photographer wishing to break free of her Maryland lifestyle. Henry on the other hand wants to stay behind and run the local paper. 15 years go by after their first encounter and a few things have changed. He's now married to a woman named Ruth and they have a son. When Henry and Gussie meet up again tensions start to rise into an awkward situation. They both might be falling for each other again. This movie is more of an emotional experience than anything. Spacek and Kline do their parts respectively each figuring out what's the next step in their lives as far as their happiness is concerned. Will they fall back on each other or stay friends despite having the different passions they've gained over the course of their lives? First lives are hardly forgotten let alone be rekindled. This movie is about the adults making some hard choices, facing some inflexible realities in their lives. This is a slow watch but not bad. Actors carry the heavy material. See more 09/17/2020 Ugh,awful movie that disguises itself as a romantic drama. Completely ridiculous plot,nudity and adultery. Kevin Kline and Sissy Spacek should be ashamed See more 08/27/2008 Slow moving but not bad film, Kevin and Sissy are good as always but Bonnie Bedelia wraps it up as the wronged wife.
