Chris Hewitt

St. Paul Pioneer Press

It's a small, graceful movie, and one of the beauties of it is imagining moviegoers tromping into Minneapolis' Parkway Theater to see it and -- for a couple of hours, at least -- forgetting their own feelings of loneliness.

Film Threat

Burnett has crafted a poignant, utterly believable film out of the most unlikely of set-ups.

[Burnett] creates a dreamily solid world where in Jones' heroic sweetness can flourish, and Redgrave and Kidder can disappear into their roles with a dazzling, playful intensity.
