A great story about personal/professional disappointments and broken dreams and the belief in following your own destiny.
The relationship is obviously believable between the real life Bridges brothers'(The stable and older Frank against the moody Jack) and Michelle Pfeiffer is a real jewel in this crown as the very sexy siren that Jack can neither fathom nor resist. She becomes the catalyst for change in all their lives.
All this is put to a beautiful and moody Jazz soundtrack and the acting never hits a wrong note. One of the highlights is watching Pfeiffer writhing around on a grand piano singing 'Makin' Whoopee' while Jack tinkles the ivories (A precursor for what is to come). A very sexy moment in a very fine, sexy and subtle film.
