An all-star cast give stand-up performances in this small-screen beauty. Hoffman, Sarandon and Hunter live up to their billing. Gyllenhaal and Pompeo spread their dramatic wings, especially when facial expression and body language must carry the scene -- the art of "tacit" acting lost on so many of today's young actors. The script provides plenty of elbow room for subtle humor and innuendo. The sound track provides a richness to the film's "Indie" ambiance. Like any good dramatic work, there's a lot working "beneath the surface" in this film -- it becomes more profound and is better appreciated with subsequent viewings. This is "keeper" DVD for your movie collection.
