Carol-23's rating
Enjoyed this tv "chick flick" even though the story is a little "syrupy" and the ending pretty obvious even if you hadn't read the Danielle Steele novel (which I had). Well cast especially with Kathleen Quinlan and Michael Collins in the lead roles. Beatrice Straight was very good as the manipulative, scheming mother. Definitely worth seeing on a rainy night.
Started out a little slowly but gained momentum as war breaks
out. Joan Plowright is delightful as Mary with the big heart
and all the other "ladies" parts were acted beautifully; Cher
shines, Maggie Smith is wonderful as the hateful Hester. Both
Baird Wallace and Charlie Lucas who played Luca at different
ages warm your heart--Charlie Lucas is adorable! I almost missed
this in the theatres. Glad I didn't!

WARNING! do NOT watch trailers or listen to anyone about this movie! just see it, and come back and review it. I'm sorry for anyone who doesn't walk out of the theatre just blown away!
Oscar nominations at the very LEAST for Haley Joel and Bruce Willis or there IS not justice. No question that Haley Joel should win in his category. Reminiscent of Patty Duke in "The Miracle Worker" in acting ability! I want to see it again!
