    One of the great underrated films of the 1990s. Check it out! Funny, moving, and unlike any other movie.

  1. Tries with intermittent success to juggle two stories.

    Somehow, Lucille's plight is meant to comment astutely on the civil-rights movement. Now that IS crazy.
  3. Feels like two films that aren't closely related enough, either tonally or narratively, to warrant their intertwining.
