10/10
Probably the most touching movie I have ever seen - even to this day...
20 September 2000
This film remains my absolute all time favorite movie. Shirley MacLaine and Jack Nicholson give the performances of their long and distinguished careers. Jeff Daniels actually does a good job in this! Debra Winger and John Lithgow show that they are truly great actors. These people were perfectly cast. MacLaine IS Aurora. Nicholson IS Garrett. Winger and Daniels ARE the Hortons. I think you get my drift here.

This movie made me laugh and truly made me cry. Accompanied by the amazing musical score by Michael Gore, this film touches those who watch by letting us really enter the inner-workings of Aurora and Emma's relationship. This is what the Oscars are all about. A film that can truly span every category in the Oscars and stand up there with the absolute best of them.

Get this movie when you just want to sit back and enjoy quality film making and acting and you want to be emotionally moved.
