The Big Chill (1983)
8/10
A generation's middle-class angst
1 February 2003
Rockin' little movie that works like a good stage play. Entertaining faceoffs among disparate characters searching for a truth to call their own. Outstanding ensemble cast of mostly then-unknowns gets down and dirty with each other in the most

genteel manner. An excellent character study of how basically okay old friends in pain cope with death, life, each other, and being forced to grow up. Generally fine script has its overdone moments, but for the most part rings as true as any film of this type. Features some of Kevin Costner's best work to date.
