Trivia:
The movie was supposed to be called "Grace Under Fire", but that was rejected because of "Grace Under Fire" (1993). So the movie was eventually named after the song "Something To Talk About", popularized by Bonnie Raitt. The version in the movie is sung by Therese Willis. The song was composed by Lisa Dalbello. moreGoofs:
Audio/visual unsynchronized: During the dance scene, after the big show, the band and singers do not match to what songs are currently playing. moreQuotes:
Grace: Emma Rae, I have a cookbook to put out, and a daughter to raise, and the God damn winter Grand Prix. And I just don't have time for the nervous breakdown I deserve, so please, don't ask me to stop and think! moreMovie Connections:

This is a delightful film about a Southern belle, Grace King Bichon
(Julia Roberts), who chafes under the domination of her
brook-no-dissent father, and is cheated on by her husband. Grace
works for her father on his horse farm, and her suppressed
resentment of his iron rule has likely helped derail her marriage to
Eddie. In any event, the film is ultimately about the love and
strength of family relationships and the power of forgiveness, as
well as finding one's own path in life. All actors turn in great
performances: Julia Roberts as the heroine and wronged wife;
Robert Duvall as the family patriarch; Gena Rowlands as the
beautiful and devoted spouse and mother; and Kyra Sedgwick as
the transgressive sister. Dennis Quaid as Grace's philandering
husband is very appealing, so it's hard not to be rooting for he and
Grace to reconcile. Finally, good cinematography and a portrait of
gracious Southern living make this film an enjoyable view.
