Long, but worth it.

Rating: Null/10 (10 April 1999)

This was a wonderful, life-affirming movie that was too long for its own good! Although the story was well told, I believe that too many frivolous scenes were put in, and unfortunately it causes the movie to drag in the middle. Ms. Forlani tends to look like she is on the verge of crying throughout the entire movie, even during the happy parts, but she performs very well and interacts flawlessly with Anthony Hopkins, who plays her father. If you have a few hours and aren't the least bit sleepy, catch this movie on video... the ending is worth the wait.
