hoyttree I have not seen this movie in awhile, it was right around the time that Bronx Tale came to HBO I believe and was happy that there were two good movies with some heart and originality. I saw it on HBO before Bronx Tale and was just very happy with the development of the characters. I thought that the acting was superb. It had some humor and had three to four things going on. I felt that this movie did not get the recognition it deserved. I am curious how this happens. It was quirky true but Elizabeth Shue with the two fairly unknowns in William McNamara and Dylan Walsh in my mind as two brothers out of college was done very classy and the way movies should be.

Moonknight31 I think this movie had a catcher in the rye feel to it, you either loved it or you hated it. I really felt moved by this movie and I don't know if it was because I watched it alone one sat. night or because I felt my old Elisabeth shue crush come back... In all a great story that's well told and played out by characters that are easy to like. (also watch and listen for Matt's catcher in the rye reference in the phone booth)- Great Movie for adults.

Philip R Hall This movie was developed from a Jeffrey Bell story and mini-movie that appeared on A&E's wonderful series "ShortStories". The original movie was bizarre; tantalizing; haunting; provacative. The characters were interesting; even fascinating. I couldn't help wondering what happened to them after the end of the movie, so it was with great anticipation that I rented the video. Bummer. It should have stayed a 20-minute movie. All of the principal characters were recast with different actors, and an eerie story became a trite and boring story line. The full-length movie? Forget it. But if you ever get an opportunity to view the original; I recommend it highly.

Bruce Niebuhr This gentle, even sweet, film is quite unusual in presenting in a non-mocking manner a person, Matthew (William McNamara), with real, heartfelt religious beliefs. Matthew does have a rather quirky relationship with Jesus, however! Basically, this is a three-character story with the actors (Dylan Walsh, Elisabeth Shue and McNamara) all giving fine performances. I also liked the cinematography, with its nice use of Miami Beach locales.
