She's So Lovely Reviews

To be honest, it has been a while since I have seen this movie and I should probably re-watch it at some point. I have always been amazed by how low the ratings are for this feature because I always thought it was actually a rather strong drama. In fact, I even saw it in the movie theater when it was released and I was quite impressed at the time. I mean, you can say whatever but, on paper, the whole thing sounded pretty amazing. Indeed, it was written by John Cassavetes and directed by his son, Nick Cassavetes and the cast included such fine actors like Sean Penn, Robin Wright, John Travolta, James Gandolfini, Harry Dean Stanton and Gena Rowlands. I really had a weak spot for those really messed up characters and I thought that this rather unhealthy love story was rather fascinating to behold. To be honest, Robin Wright‘s character was rather inconsistent and probably the weakest point in this movie but I still enjoyed the damned thing. Anyway, I have seen most of Nick Cassavetes’s movies (except the really obscure ‘Yellow’’) and this one might be his best. To conclude, I think it is a great love story about screwed up people and it is definitely worth a look.
