This movie was a surprise to me when I saw it, Diane Keaton in a very different role and very intense as well.
My favorite character she ever done in her career, it was a shock at 1st but it’s a very good movie about a woman and her private unbalanced world. (Never could forget this one, too intense and too real for me to forget it.)
I saw this once, when it debuted. It was so disturbing, I never want to see it again. Same with other movies of that era, e.g. "Eyes of Laura Mars". Fell in love w/ Tommy Lee Jones (may have been his debut) but it scared the crap out of me.
Hi California girl thanks for passing by!
I agree with you, very hard movie to watch. I was amazed seeing Diane playing this drama and that disturbed character, still I had to suggest it, it shows how off balance we all can be emotionally and how that reflects in our lives.
