Rating: - A magnificent idea supported on an uneven script!
Once more, we will have the immense pleasure to watch two legends of the cinema in the peak of its creativeness. The versatile Shirley MacLaine plays the role of a recent Jewish widowed and the well educated Italian gentleman, who also lost his wife.
Nevertheless, this autumnal romance really lacks of a true narrative vertebral column and from time to time yields us to effective vignettes, that work out as a tongue in the cheek. You should remind for instance "Moonstruck" to understand plainly the problem to deal with a heavy-handed script bounded with a magnificent and a superior cast.
Fresh and funny but ultimately disappointing.

I've loved this film for years and just came on Amazon to put it on my wish list, when to my horror I realized that it's not available on DVD! What gives?! I WANT MY DVD!

Please release a DVD! This beautiful film truly captures the essence of a New York family in the 60s. Great casting, great talent, great acting and beautiful photography make this film likely to make those of us who experienced this time period in NY very sentimental.

She doesn't know how to deal with information so she deserts him. He's not easily discouraged and positions himself in her life affecting both her and the members of her family.
This story is about life after death and how the death of a loved one affects those left behind; in particular, the wife and her two daughters and their children. Shirley MacLaine is excellent as the bitter widow who laid down her ... Read More
