| See it! But be forewarned that the first half hour really drags, and
you do get a little tired of the tears hanging off the end of Nina's
nose :-)
It's a quirky (my kinda genre) film with unique slants on
death/afterlife, some wonderful who-knows-why-they're-here characters
and (quoting a review from the ?Globe?), one of the all-time-great movie
"first dates". Hey, any film with two principal characters singing
Joni Mitchell's "A Case of You" to each other can't be all bad.

| I really liked this movie, not the least because of the female lead
character's name... :-)

| Thanks, Nina... sorry, I just got carried away with the "Emma" tie-in.
TMD is probably one of my top 15 favorite movies, the plodding first
half-hour notwithstanding. I still get teary, laugh out loud and sing
along, hopefully at the appropriate times :-) , plus I have a crush on
practically all the men in it.
...well, maybe not the video guys :-)

| 1163.5 | And it had Alan Rickman. | STAR::65320::RIVERS | No comment | Fri Sep 06 1996 14:12 | 10 |
| This film is the first one I noticed realistic crying in. She cried
like people really do, runny nose, blotchy face, everything. No
glycerine tears, this lady. You could believe she'd really bawled her
eyes out. Most people who cry in movies don't end up looking half as
bad as those of us who've cried in real life. :)

| Try to see "Maybe I'll Come Home In The Spring", an old Sally Field movie,
sometime. She looked *terrible*. It was great!

| This is one of my all-time favorite movies. So much so, that
I bought it. Alan Rickman is one of my favorites.
Note: he won the Emmy last night for best actor in a made for
TV movie I think - It was for Rasputin on HBO - well
deserved in my opinion.

I was hoping Gary Sinise would win that for "Truman", although
that was the only 1 of the nominees that I'd seen.
