If there is a more beautiful film than this one, I've not seen it. I don't think I could stand anything more ethereal than this story of love, honor, and eternity.

I plan to see the movie again and again and again. I already own the soundtrack...and am waiting for the video.

See this movie. It's one of cinema's finest moments!

I first saw this movie when it came out and then again this past week-end on TNT.

It has lost nothing of its power and punch in the four years since its release.

John Sayles is proving over and over again just how very talented he is and what a good eye/ear he has for directing/dialogue.

This movie does not snap along, it's slow and builds to a powerful conclusion, with a surprise twist thrown in for good measure.

I'm going to purchase this movie for my collection. It's that good.

Enjoy!

I really liked this movie...Roberts is brassy, sassy and ballsy...and I especially liked Albert Finney's work....I kept wanting to say "You go, girl!" to the screen, but didn't want to disrupt the rest of the audience....having worked for a law firm and having been the one to give a huge settlement check to a widow, I really identified with Roberts' character.

I might not use all the same language she does, but I fought for my clients with the same fervor.

Enjoy!
