More than a one-woman show

Rating: 9/10 (21 January 2004)

Notable for being the film that changed my opinion of Julia Roberts. Finally casting aside the shadow of too much mid-90s s***, she deserved that Oscar. And, for my money, this was a far better film than the over-directed Traffic. Oh, and Albert Finney is brilliant in this too. People say it's a glorified movie-of-the-week. Does the genre matter? It's been glorified so well, it's become a brilliant movie.
