Wonderful performances by all four leads (Fornlani, Morrow, Weber and Brook) and a terrific screenplay add up to very good indie-type film about relationships in the 90s. See it, if you're NOT just an action-junkie!
Very good human drama of love, insecurity, betrayal, renewal...Claire Forlani and Rob Morrow are respectively, fine actors. The plot, unfortunately, was more common than I wish to admit. Fast, long time friends and the unexplainable chemistry and attraction that can occur without planning, motive or intention. The fact that Adam had lost an eye to his buddy through a sheer accident started an element of insecurity between buddies. Couple that with each finding a love - one more sincere than perhaps the other - and eventual mixed if not undeniable attraction, led to utter pain, betrayal and great heartache. Acting was very good; plot was totally REAL. A little slow; as many of these types of dramas tend to be unnecessarily to my way of thinking. STILL, good movie if not sad - if not truly poignant...Coming "full circle" with one's self and fallibility is a hard, hard "road to hoe" for any of us. Rather familiar I'm afraid but meaningful and a forever life lesson in friendship, love and loyalty.
If like me you often enjoy watching a movie just to see the artistry of the actors, then this is a movie to watch. No impressive action and effects, or a particularly original story. Just reality...and a sober, painful one at times. The actors/actresses dragged me into it without me noticing. Of course the fact that one of these artists happens to be one of the most beautiful women alive, makes it even more worth seeing! I had seen Clair Forlani previously in Joe black and was impressed by her beauty and charm, but in this movie she has more space and shows how deeper her acting can go and impressed me even more. I agree with one of the other comments on this movie: unless you are a action or adrenaline junkie, this film is definitely worth watching.
I loved this film. It deserves and demands a truly attentive viewing,and rewards that attention with a wealth of insight, nuance, and moments of emotion so striking and realistic they're almost heartbreaking to watch. The acting and dialog is absolutely first rate, and the chilly feel evoked by the unblinking location shooting in Manhattan and The Berkshires brilliantly underscores the film's themes of love, envy and betrayal. It's hard to believe how this missed being a bigger film. Much more ballyhooed projects have tackled similar themes far less adeptly.
Into My Heart is an overlooked gem, brimming with sincerity; It touches your heart and mind in subtle, sometimes unnerving ways, and lingers long after the final credits. Film lovers should put this one on their must see list.

I liked it a lot. Good relationship type film. Intelligently written and played. Would that all films were this simple and good.
