Thank you. This is one if not my all time favorite Streisand film. I loved the novel so much and her adaptation was everything I hoped the film would be. Great performances all around - the great Kate Nelligan almost walks away with the film and that scene where Tom breaks down after letting out his secret is just so heartbreaking. 

First day purchase for me!

This is great news. I love this film, even though the premise is an ethical and legal monstrosity. Nick Nolte deserved an Oscar and Barbra is at the height of her cinematic powers. 

I love how one reviewer who hated it said Barbra was most authentic when Nolte tosses her a football and she utters, "MY NAILS!" This was unscripted and kept in the film. It's a cute moment. 

I wonder what the gag reel looks like.
