Gloria Bell

My wife and i watched this at home on DVD from our public library.

The story presented here doesn't cover any new ground but is an interesting character study of an attractive and independent late-50s professional woman who has been divorced for about 10 or 12 years. Julianne Moore is Gloria Bell and one night at one of her favorite bars meets a very nice slightly older man who shows an interest in her.

The thorn here is the man has only recently been divorced and, with an ex-wife and two adult daughters who still seem to depend heavily on him, turns out not to be a ready and reliable companion.

So the story is sort of a several week glimpse into the life of this single woman, trying to make a go of it with this nice man, only to finally realize she is probably better off just as she is.
