I watched this film last night for the first time. It was airing on one of the HBO Channels. To be honest I was pleasantly surprised. I wasn't sure at first where they were going with it as the movie progressed I became more and more interested. Thinking at first if this were an older man younger woman scenario, no one would care. I also wasn't sure about Jed's character and what his motives were as well. I like Kate's (Andie MacDowell) friends did not want to see her get hurt and yet being older myself I understood. BUT friends can be sometimes dangerous especially one who masks envy for concern.Once I realized that however young HOT Jed was he was sincere and I believe truly fell in love with Kate, making the outcome even more tragic. On a lighter note one aspect of his character that I found sexy is when he would take the gum out of his mouth before making love to Kate. It was sexy at best! I liked Andie M. in this due to the fact that her character was someone I could relate too. The romantic who I gather had not experienced real romance up until meeting Jed (Kenny Doughty). When she would smile thinking of him in the most inopportune places I thought yes indeed I know that feeling. This is not a great movie but it is a good one and refreshingly what it feels like for older women trying to find love and having a movie in this era portray that.
