It's not the clever story, it's everything else

Rating: 9/10 (29 June 2000)

The story's been done before in one way or another, and there isn't a lot of clever dialogue or wrenching plot twists. But this movie is superbly acted by every single actor, and is directed and edited with great taste and restraint. So while it may be a familiar subject, it's the best treatment of it you'll ever see.
Annette Bening is one of my least favorite actresses, and she was great!
