If only 1) Barbra Streisand hadn't directed and starred, 2) the story had been more concerned with the Wingo family than the "therapy" provided by Lowenstein, 3) the really horrible scenes (such as the awful dinner party at the Lowenstein home) and dialogue had been left on the cutting room floor, 4) the suicidal sister been allowed to have a character, and 5) the score had been dumped (it's so sickly it should come with a warning from the dental association) THEN this movie might be palatable! We're supposed to believe that Lowenstein can change the lives of the poor damaged Wingo children? She hasn't even got the wits to get rid of her philandering, peripatetic, arrogant, insensitive husband!!
I have seen "The Changeling" at least a dozen times since its release, and it never fails to frighten me. The story is wonderful, the plot is tightly constructed, the performances are excellent, and, best of all, the film never descends into the ridiculous gore typical of horror films. This film is not comparable to "Poltergeist" or the dreadful "Amityville Horror" -- it is far superior to them, and to the earlier "The Haunting". "The Changeling" is so good, so effective, that I wouldn't classify it as a horror movie at all.
Based on Paul Quarrington's award-winning novel, which in turn is loosely based on the life of Brian Wilson, "Whale Music" should be a much better film than it is. Maury Chaykin is so well cast as Des you'd think Quarrington wrote the character with him in mind, and the whale music itself (composed by Canada's greatest band, Rheostatics) is terrific, but the movie is a disappointment. The novel is a wonderfully entertaining read, however, and the story is much better developed in print; another commentator has mistakenly written that the flashbacks concern Des's son when they feature his brother, Danny (or Dennis Wilson).
