DVD Review: a Fan +#<%g Tastic Film!
Summary: 5 Stars

Just as good now, or even better than when we first saw it way back when.

DVD Review: Wonderfully touching
Summary: 4 Stars

This one was a real tear jerker. But in order to get to the tears, we had to get to really know the characters and like them.

James L Brooks' screenplay did just that. Based on the wonderful novel by Larry McMurtry, the screenplay condensed it for the screen and Mr Brooks' direction delivered it beautifully to the screen.

A lifelong relationship between a mother and her daughter is depicted.

Giving us their great talents as actors are Shirley MacLaine as Aurora, Debra Winger as her daughter, Jack Nicholson, as Aurora's neighbor boyfriend, Jeff Daniels and John Lithgow.

The direction, the music, the photography were all perfect.

DVD Review: One of the most beloved movies ever!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I swear, this is the movie that makes me cry the most. Every single time I see this, no matter how many times i've seen it, it always, always, always makes me cry. This movie is the biggest tear fest on the planet. Anyone who could get through this movie without crying (heaven forbid) is probably the strongest tear holder in the world!!!

Description of Terms of Endearment

The story of a mother and daughter and their relationship over a thirty-year time span.
Genre: Feature Film-Drama
Rating: PG
Release Date: 29-DEC-2004
Media Type: DVD

Larry McMurtry's novel becomes a somewhat lumpy film as directed by James L. Brooks (As Good As It Gets). Nevertheless, it is entirely winning, with Shirley MacLaine and Debra Winger playing a combative mother and daughter who see each other through various ups and downs in love and loss, and most especially through a terminal illness endured by Winger's character. Jack Nicholson deservedly won an Oscar for his supporting role as a free-spirited astronaut who backs away from a romance with MacLaine and then returns in the clutch. As he always does, Brooks keeps things from getting too soapy with his intense concentration on the soulful evolution of his characters. --Tom Keogh
