Another Woman

I enjoyed this movie. The performances weren't overblown, they were simple with the awkwardness of a family rediscovering each other. The scenes as Justine Bateman and Peter Outerbridge fall in love again were believable and touching. A nice surprise as romance novels made into movies tend to be mawkish!!

First the revelation - I read romance novels and as any serious reader will know it can be quite hard to transfer the emotions described in a book onto film. This film managed it. Why? Because the acting was believable, there was chemistry and the story line was entirely plausible. I own this movie and I am happy to own it and I think the best compliment I could give is to say that as soon as I watched I wanted to watch it again. This is a feel good movie. If you're not romantic or a parent you might not get it but I loved it hence my 8 out of 10. And now I'm off to watch it again!!! Ps Justine Bateman - need to see her more on TV as she portrays emotions excellently. Not many actresses cry real tears!

I read where someone praised the actress playing the daughter in this amateur hour production. And I left during the bland reading from the teleprompter kitchen scene with the father daughter and the cook/maid/whatever she was placed there for woman who seemed t5hat she was not on the same hate the wife/mother page.

That entire conversation was flat and straight out of a 4th grade thanksgiving play arena. Better direction and better dialog could have made this better. As it stands as a finished product and these high rating on IMDb don't measure up.

Oh, I almost left out the dude in the hospital parking lot who enters the hospital after the husband leaves and conveniently has a nurses assistant leave a cart of flowers for him to snatch one as a ploy to I guess get into this woman's room in broad daylight??? Like your going to assault a person in a crowded hospital and get away with it??

Nope, can't see the high ratings with this type of nonsense.

A generous *** out of **********

These productions are so predictable ... canadian men are woman mental and physical abusers .. this is but one of thousands of similar stories ... makes me ill to watch so it will you as well ... blech

I was actually a bit surprised to find an interesting movie here despite obvious cliche and bad researching (The info on Lisa's medical condition is inaccurate, although in the end it doesn't matter).

I always thought that Justine Bateman had some talent and was pleased to find that she was able to use it here. While the script is not always the greatest she does a fine job with it as do her co-stars. Peter Outerbridge shows what a fine actor he is, and the young girl playing Bonnie also does a wonderful job. Her character is nicely developed as is Joe the hired gun.

If you are looking for something on a rainy afternoon this might be the ticket.
