i love this movie despite the fact it just miss be great . it an adult entertainment and full of issue that a grown person can relate to . the acting be superb . it fun watch john cassavetes and gena rowlands a a feuding middle age couple . who know how much of it come from their own marriage . susan sarandon have never be sexy or more appealing than a her freewheeling character and aretha . raul julia be a hoot a a lusty goatherd . the scenery in greece be spectacular while the new york setting cause me to squirm due to many shot of the world trade center . fantastic score by stomu yamashta . with so many thing go for it and why isn not this a great film . it a bit ramble and overly long and unfocused and and uncomfortably imbalanced between humor and drama . still and it engage and entertaining and and deeply thoughtful .
