Hands down the worst movie I've ever seen. Jennifer Jason Leigh was horrible. I can only blame the directing, the most obviously acted movie I ever laid my eyes on, and the casting, since Jennifer Jason Leigh has not given a performance I liked, the least worst being Fast Times. Tried to be stylish and was only hamfistedly crass. Sometimes the stink of self congratulation is too noxious to overcome.
@toolkien I do not agree at all with your comment. To me, it is a wonderful film, as always, what we like, or dislike, as viewers is only a matter of opinion, but i feel yours is a bit strong!
I'm the bartender in the scene at 27 seconds...all the actors got screwed in this movie because the production company went bankrupt. None of us ever received any residuals despite the movie playing on movie channels all around the world for well over a decade.
I've seen 17 of Jennifer's films and my favorite is 'Bastard out of Carolina', 2nd fav 'Deloris Claiborne'. I love how she explores various intense characters & isn't afraid to expand her range. I haven't been able to see 'Eyes of a Stranger', would love to see it here if available. Also would love to see 'The Best Little Girl in the World' again (it was her first film that I saw). I also like that she's willing to do supporting as well as staring roles at various stages in her career.
Jennifer Jason Leigh should have won the Oscar for best actress in 1994 for her performance has aged very well indeed compared to Jessica Lange's performance in Blue Sky.
All the years I've wasted being a party girl and a smart ass! Jennifer you rocked this movie! I'll never forget when I saw this film in the winter of 1995!
HER VOICE MAKES ME WANT TO PULL MY HAIR OUT.

Edna Ferber, who wrote "Giant" said her famous rejoiner to Noel Coward, when he said that to Edna, walking in wearing a similar suit.
