I can't believe all of the positive reviews, I thought this movie was awful. Perhaps I'm looking at it 30 years on from when it was made. It hasn't worn well, has that feel of an old cheap made for TV movie. The script was laboured, they could have been reading from cue cards it was that wooden. Half of the conversations, no make that all of the conversations were pointless. Julie Andrews plays what she usually plays, an upper crust English woman. Ann-Margaret character lives in a trailer park in Arkansas so therefore the neighbours are all portrayed as trailer park hillbillies and Ann-Margaret works as a waitress and therefore can't be too bright. Hugh grant plays what he normally plays which is a boring mediocre actor. I could hardly understand what the sick guy was saying as he was either mumbling or the tv in the background was too loud. A very disjointed movie. So many better movies depicting the devastating disease that AIDS was at that time. Thank goodness for better treatments these days to help individuals lead normal lives.
