Once ensconced in her Greenwich Village apartment, the butcher's wife starts making predictions of future romance for several of her newfound friends. The predictions do come true, but our heroine begins to doubt her powers of extrasensory perception when she realizes that she may be falling in love with a skeptical local psychiatrist -- a turn of events that she certainly didn't foretell.

Reviews for The Butcher's Wife
The first half of the film is dreadfully contrived and artificial, from the uneven acting to the stereotype-filled script, to the aforementioned set and production design.
