Reviews for Between Strangers
As soft-lit and saccharine as a Sugar Jones video, it tries to pass off sentiment as emotion and artifice as art.
Except for heartfelt performances by Sophia Loren and Pete Postlethwaite as her wheelchair-bound husband, Between Strangers is an awful cheat.
It is fabulously badly made, with rare weak performances from otherwise excellent actors ... and idiotic dialogue and events.
