Reviews
|
ReelViews -
The strength of the screenplay and acting provide a satisfying, although not overwhelming, two hours of romance, drama, and tragedy.
|
|
Chicago Tribune -
The film, like the book, is clear-eyed without being clinical, reflective but never maudlin.
|
|
Rolling Stone -
Susan Minot’s resplendent novel of a dying woman…stumbles on its way to the screen.
|
|
Variety -
Individual moments are not without their felicitous touches -- mainly due to the cast, which is rich to the point of improbability.

The Hollywood Reporter -
What a cast but what a disappointment.
