this story have a different angle that intrigue me and enough to buy a previously view vhs sight unseen . that be a mistake . in what could have be a very nice story about badly cripple people at a hospital and and their various personality turn quickly into a very profane soap opera with unlikeable character . we have bloss ( william forsythe ) the stereotype racist white person and who say the f word every other sentence and be so despicable they do not give him a first name in the movie . he a lot of fun to be around . then and there be raymond hill ( wesley snipe ) and a fast talk womanizer . snipe must have like those fast talk hip arrogant role because he play in a number of them and like in white men can not jump . then there be sweet helen hunt play anna that wonderful caring and love person who be have an adulterous affair with the lead character in the film and joel garcia ( eric stoltz ) . yup and this be heartwarming and feel good type stuff . it just make my heart melt watch these nice folk . but and if you be one of those who love sleazy character portray by sleazy people in this sleazy film . you might really like this . add in a dose of hollywood political correctness and there you go . what more could anyone want .
