Reviews

David Ansen

Newsweek

Jeff Bridges is extraordinary as Ted Cole...this hothouse tale of grief, sex and betrayal is told with a cool detachment that renders it commendably unsentimental--and slightly remote.

Orlando Sentinel

One of the best Irving adaptations, a movie with a sad soul and something to say about that state in us all.

It takes nerve to use dead children as apologists for adult misbehavior, but nerve is something novelist John Irving has never lacked.
