DESCRIPTION
Grace has a picture-perfect life. And it goes dizzyingly out of focus the day she discovers her husband Eddie has been unfaithful. Julia Roberts headlines this acclaimed movie that aims for the heart and funnybone - and scores a bull's eye. In her best screen role yet, Roberts is Grace, whose reaction to the infidelities of Eddie Dennis Quaid turns the lives and loves of the people around her into something like falling dominoes. Robert Duvall, Gena Rowlands, Kyra Sedgwick and others in "the years best ensemble of characters" Jack Matthews, Newsday join Roberts for this juicy, truthful story written by Callie Khouri Thelma and Louise and directed by Lasse Hallstrom What's Eating Gilbert Grape?. Folks are talking about Grace. You owe it to yourself to see why.
This well-intentioned but strangely cold tale concerns an emotionally repressed Southern belle Julia Roberts who separates from her husband Dennis Quaid after discovering he is an unabashed philanderer. Pressed by her dominating father Robert Duvall into reconciling with her spouse, Roberts's character chafes against so much male control over her destiny. Defended by a fiercely independent sister a catchy performance by Kyra Sedgwick, the heroine develops the nerve to plot her own course in life while her mother Gena Rowlands finds the gumption to throw her own mate out of the house. The script by Callie Khouri Thelma & Louise is intelligent but hardly clear, and direction by Lasse Hallström Once Around can't keep Khouri's unfocused scenes and uncertain purpose from dissolving like sand castles in the rain. --Tom Keogh
