Editorial Reviews "...[Mellencamp's] vibrantly funny and touching film plays as an extension of his music without his singing a note..." Travers
"...A movie of heart, subtlety, and dramatic zest..." Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman (03/13/1992)
"...There's a sharp, novelistic sense of observation in the way the characters bounce off each other's time-worn hostilities. The dialogue has an emotional subtext -- an undertow of feeling..." Los Angeles Times - Peter Rainer (02/21/1992)
"...Mellencamp turns out to have a real filmmaking gift. His film is perceptive and subtle....The characters created here with McMurtry are three-dimensional and fully realized..." Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (05/15/1992)
