This is not the kind of movie where the two of them just hop into bed together. When Jennifer's on stage, all is right with the picture. But it sags badly behind the scenes. Two hours and twenty minutes seems a bit excessive for such a superficial nice girl makes good, success story. But at least the picture covers the tragic side of the story with a certain restraint.
Sensation seekers beware.
Although this antiseptic biography hits enough high notes to register 3 stars.
