Tuesday Weld's Best Picture!, 19 December 2000
10/10
Author: countersign (countersign@dellnet.com) from New York, New York, USA 10017

Tuesday Weld is my favourite actress and this her best picture other than Once Upon A Time In America which was also very superb! This picture takes its place as a divorced hard-working mother whose mother lives with her and her two children. She has a very hard time adjusting to being on her own and she takes out all of her problems by punching the mother in the face in one scene. Her son is addicted to heroin and is played greatly by River Phoenix. But Tuesday finally solves her problems by consulting her ex-husband's psychiatrist and she resolves her problems with her mother, children and even herself. She must now come to terms with her inner demons. 10/10
