Jackson M @Nshvlleindie 3d Such an original story, it honestly was cast so well and written/directed to perfection. It would’ve been easy for this movie to go badly, but it’s near perfect and has that feel-good charm people crave from Friends or Gilmore Girls. A 90s gem that has it all, plus great music and terrific visuals.

I found it hilarious with heaps of charm. I enjoy this movie with such a brilliant premise as much as "Pleasantville" & "Galaxy Quest". I didn't find the comedy uneven; many scenes are comedic throughout & others have a 1-2-3 punch towards the end. The casting is superb—all the way down to Sussman who played the deadpan funny butcher in just one scene. The script is superb with well-constructed scenes, and throughout the story, there's an undercurrent lovingly poking fun at Americana and human foibles & relationships (it perhaps helps to know Americana of the 50's-90’s—oh, those Pinkos!). It's a tricky story to get the right tone, and it would be easier than pie to fall flat. Kudos to the director, casting director, editor, & all those behind the scenes. These are my favorite comedic performances of Fraser & Silverstone. Their chemistry is more than swell too. Spacek & Walken are their usual greatness. Like Streep, Spacek should do more comedy (and why aren't Spacek & Streep in a witty comedy together???). Foley (always excellent) plays a happy, fun, sharp character. Since the 80's, I've often found films to worry about pacing too much, and the audience doesn't get to live with the characters enough; this can also be a fault of the writing. I don't have any complaints about this film, and I typically can make a list quickly. And what's wrong with a film with positive messages on being kind and appreciating life & love?
