Read the full reviewIt all adds up to a compelling, deftly executed film that thoughtfully examines the actions and motivations that draw people together, directing their uneasy relationships.

Read the full reviewA sporadically funny romantic comedy with all the dramatic plausibility and tonal consistency of a TV variety show.

"Wierd and witty , one of my favorites. Jack Nickolson gives his best performance since coo coo's nest . Helen Hunt is superb . A gay bashers delight.A sentimental classic story of boy meets girl and insults her . Don't miss."
