Member Movie Reviews Kristina A. from ST PETERSBURG, FL Reviewed on 6/30/2024... I don't normally leave reviews, but I am at a complete loss to understand how you can take a PULITZER PRIZE WINNING play, hire 3 of the top female actresses of the time, and yet end up with a film this dreadfully muddled and downright disappointing. A Streetcar Named Desire, this is not. Really, don't bother. Cynthia C. from MESQUITE, TX Reviewed on 10/18/2013... SO wonderful! Besides loving all three of the main actesses, their portrayal of small southern town life is spot on....and hysterical! Always makes me cry, too! 1 of 1 member(s) found this review helpful.
Movie ReviewsUp-close and intimate Martyn Richard Jones | Cordoba, Spain | 10/24/2002 (5 out of 5 stars) "The films I watch tend to be action films of the likes of Arnie, Stallone and Gibson et al. So it may come as a surprise that I say that I think this film is a real gem. So why do I think that? Well, for a start it's just a pure delight from start to end. Great acting, great directing, great storyline. It's a southern story played out with charm, elegance and humanity. It's really very diificult to say exactly why one likes this movie because it really is a special personal experience that covers so many things, from aspects of motivation, the way the characters reflect and even just their accents. I will never forget those simple lines "oh babe why did you do it" and the replies, or the "she was just having a very bad day" lines too. It's a very personal film, laid back, up-close, intimate, soft, a work of art. Brilliant acting, brilliant direction and brilliant script - lovely film." Sweet and Endearing Lisa Verson | Dayton, OH | 08/08/2003 (5 out of 5 stars) "This movie, to me, was truly wonderful. It pulls you in and makes you want to keep watching. The comedy is wonderful, as is the drama. Diane Keaton, Jessica Lange, and Sissy Spacek are wonderful as three sisters who are reunited because of something that happens. Sam Shepard has a wonderful supporting role as 'Doc'. All of the actors were terrific in this movie. If you like dramas and comedies mixed into one, then definitely rent or buy this movie. You won't regret it! Three Oscar winning actresses in the leading roles, a wonderful storyline, and a wonderful play-turned-into-a-movie." Great movie Ralph R. Echtinaw | Alma, MI United States | 07/31/2002 (5 out of 5 stars) "Usually when I sense that the actors had a great time making a movie, the result isn't particularly noteworthy. ("Cannonball Run" comes to mind.) But "Crimes of the Heart" is an exception. If Jessica Lange, Diane Keaton and Sissy Spacek weren't absolutely delighted to tackle the lead roles in this film, they are much better actors than I thought.The material is reminiscent of Flannery O'Connor, who wrote some of the most humorous, offbeat Southern fiction extant.The three sisters are so controlled by their visceral reactions that one wonders if any of them have ever had an intellectual moment. Although it would be maddening to have such people for friends, they're great instruments for movie comedy.One final note: If anyone thinks Sissy Spacek is goofy-looking (as I used to), they will change their mind when they see her in this. She is absolutely gorgeous here."
