Movie Info

A weekend stay at a Vermont summer house provides glimpses into the lives of six unhappy people, plagued by unrequited feelings, thoughts and desires. Mia Farrow plays Lane, a troubled woman who hides from a terrible childhood memory. She's in love with Peter (Sam Waterston), who is tempted by Stephanie (Dianne Wiest), her good friend. As the summer days come to a close, resentments and anger come to the surface, many of them related to Lane's relationship with her actress mother (Elaine Stritch). ~ Rovi

One of Woody Allen's weakest, most static films, inspired by Ingmar Bergman's serious dramas on the one hand and by Lana Turner's scandalous life on the other.

Some of our best actors turn dreary on us in this creaky, overly self-analytical drama.

Slow moving and all takes place in one location, but very well acted and a good drama about relationships within a family. One of Woody Allen's better movies.

Good catch of Woody filming it all over again with a new cast. I couldn't have imagined it any other way without Wiest, Waterston, and the glorious Elaine Stritch. Reminded me of Interiors but a more mature, less sterile Interiors. I enjoyed it even though there was a severe lack of closure. Never plodded, but progressed at a steady andante.
