Intersection: Uma Escolha, uma Renúncia

As a consummate and long-time fan of Richard Gere's, this was a 'must have' for me and the acquisition was not a disappointment. As usual, Richard gave an excellent performance, for which I am never disappointed. Sharon Stone and Lolita Davidovich were great choices for the female characters and effectively displayed the contrast between the personalities of the women. This movie contained real aspects to a person's dilemma's in relationships...from a sterile, business 'association' with his first wife to a passionate and truly loving 'real-life' affair with the woman he met in a chance encounter. The drama of the accident was well done and suspenseful. In the end, the most touching aspect was that neither woman wished to hurt the other by disclosing what they each believed to be true - both were loved and wanted. I enjoyed it very much and it is a much-watched movie in my home with all actors performing excellently. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys a love story which is true to real-life.

I thought this film was quite good, not slow or dull by any means. It's as solid and entertaining as most "top rated" modern films of similar genre. Maybe a bit too subtle for some people? There seems to be a problem with shortening attention spans.

There is a well controlled air of the unknown through the whole thing. The rain-soaked scenery is compelling, the acting is realistic and the final sequence is powerfully done. You never quite know what's going to happen, which to me makes a good film.

Did it get bad press before it was even released? I think people sometimes go in with a bias that has no explanation. Theaters themselves can spoil movies by way of unruly viewers and other distractions. Just going to the wrong place on the wrong night can give a movie a bad rep. Get a big screen TV or projector and tune all that out.

A very touching Movie with excellent acting. Denotes the psychological conflict of the three characters

This is a good movie. Although I must admit sometimes it's a bit slow. I've seen it at least twice, and both times it mediated a special feeling that moved me.

The five main reasons why I liked this movie, are (not listed in any particular order):

1. Richard Gere - He doesn't give a great performance, but hey ! It's Richard Gere, and I really like him.

2. Sharon Stone - On the other hand gives a great performance. I've never seen her this good.

3. James Newton Howards fantastic score. The music over the final scenes and the ending credits is so beautiful and emotional, that it can make me cry everytime that I listen to it. The score enhances and puts an emphasis on the developments in the movie in an extraordinary way.

4. The script - Although it's not that tight, it's still well written, with likeable characters and a good message.

5. The feeling that this movie mediates, through the above mentioned reason, and lots more.

In conclusion: I recommend this film. It will probably not be the best movie you've ever seen, but well worth your time. And as I said, it has a good message.

With this movie, there's only two words to say, very good. I enjoyed this movie. Both Richard Gere and Sharon Stone give excellent acting performances. The two characters I didn't like was Olivia and Richard and Sharon's daughter, Ashley. this movie was acted and directed wondefully. great idea for using Vancouver B.C. Canada. if you don't believe me, watch the end credits, and watch how an old two dollar bill is used.

This movie, does like to jump around a lot from past to future but does a great job in doing so.
