  • Hello Again
  • Housewife Lucy Chadman (Shelley Long of OUTRAGEOUS FORTUNE and TV's CHEERS) comes to an untimely end while nibbling on an oriental chicken ball ... but says HELLO AGAIN when her wacky, mystical sister Zelda (Judith Ivey) brings her back from the great beyond! Only one year has passed but oh, how things have changed. Lucy's miraculous return creates laugh-filled pandemonium with everyone she re-encounters ... especially with her upwardly mobile husband (Corbin Bernsen, L.A. LAW) who is now wed to her "former" best friend! Suddenly solo, Lucy must piece together a new life -- in a riotous odyssey that bewitches her handsome doctor... bewilders her ex-husband ... and bedazzles both press and public alike!

    As predictable as the sun rising.

    Shelley Long wanders through a script she can't carry by herself while heading a cast handled with less than a Midas touch by director Frank Perry, who seems to think he's staging a high school play.

    Merely the excuse for a parade of expensive clothes and opulent locations, with Shelley Long milking her role for any drop of pathos, this is good for a giggle at best.

    A high-concept comedy with a terminally low laugh content.

    There are worse films, but they don't have Gabriel Byrne in them

    All of this is presented with a broad-stroked, sitcom raucousness that's pretty tough to stomach.

    For the first eighty minutes or so the story seems aimless but amiable, then suddenly things do start to happen, but nothing very good.

    There are the makings of a great comedy here, but you will not find more than scattered hints of it.
