what else can I say....I really tried to give the film a chance; Richard Gere deserves better; I really don't understand the intent of this film, other than to make every actor in it look like a raving idiot, whom you will never want to watch again....
Farrah Fawcett is used as a decoration, then discarded, for the rest of the female cast, which is disgraced. Lee Grant is laughable (but not funny) as a psychiatrist; is this an inside joke, Mr. Altman??. I really am curious as to the reason this movie was made.
The ensuing story involves drunken idiots (Laura Dern, etc.), spoiled kids, and a ruined wedding. Just another day in this little Texas town, or Beverly Hills, for that matter. But ....who's laughing....the humor is so cheap and obvious, and the fact that Gere is a gynecologist....Jeez; give us a break ; we may not produce films, Mr. Altman, but much of the audience IS educated........Do you just assume we are from Midland, or Crawford, Texas.....? I really want an answer on this one, because the film has absolutely NO purpose, theme, or redeeming value.
