I can't imagine anybody with a heart not liking this movie. It works on all levels. It's basically a flashback film as told by the participants, but you don't feel like you're flashing back all the time; in fact, you are just as captivated as the character to whom the story is being told, and you can't wait for the next flashback, but you don't feel stuck in it. This one works a lot like Fried Green Tomatoes in that respect, except that there's more suspense in the flashbacks here. Also, using a cast of storytellers really helps keep it fresh throughout. Debra Winger does a great job, and Billy Crystal was his usual charming and funny self, and there really wasn't a weak link in the entire movie. The ending was excellent. The comedy was very sharp and the drama was heavy when needed. I rate this one above When Harry Met Sally , but don't compare the two as this is a story of two people in love who have obstacles to overcome, and the storyline is nothing like WHMS at all. The only similarity is Billy Crystal in a romantic comedy, and the comedy is better here and the romance is much better. Kudos to the late William Hickey (who was also a famous acting coach) for his funny portrayal of Winger's feeble-minded dad and also Cynthia Stevenson who played the woman that's being told the story.  Dobrý komentář  1x
