| | Dreyfuss/Hunter Movie | Anonymous 06/18/2007 | Dreyfuss/Hunter at their best.
Interestingly I would have thought that these two would have starred in more movies together, because they obviously have a connection which shows in the movie.
I love Holly Hunter in this movie. She is a classy actor. |
