Holy shit, this movie had so many stars in it I couldn't believe my eyes. And they're all so young and adorable looking! Except for Sean Connery. He was already old by the 90's. Still, it's amazing to see all these people together in one film.It follows four couples as they navigate the murky waters of relationships. Hannah (Gena Rowlands) is still upset about a possible indiscretion her husband Paul (Sean Connery) had forty years ago, especially since they found out he has terminal cancer. Madeline (Gillian Anderson) is a playwright trying to start a new relationship with Trent (Jon Stewart), but hampered by her past failures. Gracie (Madeline Stowe) is having an affair with Roger (Anthony Edwards) because she doesn't feel the spark between herself and her husband, Hugh (Dennis Quaid) anymore. Joan (Angelina Jolie) is a fun-loving club kid who has her eye on Keenan (Ryan Phillipe), despite his many rebuffs.
It's a bit more touchy-feely than I generally care for in my movies, but again, stellar casting. It was off streaming for a while but it's back on now so give it a shot. It's worth a Sunday afternoon view, at least.
