Editorial Reviews "...A magnificent performance by Jessica Lange. Here is a performance so unfaltering, so tough, so intelligent and so humane that it seems as if [Lange] is just now, at long last, making her motion picture debut..." Canby
"...[Lange and Stanley's] suffocating scenes together have some of the gothic thrill of CARRIE..." Entertainment Weekly - Mark Harris (02/02/2002)
