Audience Reviews for Rachel, Rachel

  • Feb 14, 2014
    Newman's direction of his wife is poignant at times but this isn't due to Joanne Woodward who is fabulous in the lead role.

    A bit flawed by the excess of flashbacks and oniric sequences. Nevertheless, amazing performance by Mrs. Newman

    Joanne Woodward stars a Rachel, a timid and sexually frustrated 35-year old schoolteacher who's desperate for a change in her life; a summer fling throws her emotions into chaos. A slow, quiet film about ordinary sadness and triumph; the movie requires a star turn from Woodward to pull it off, and gets it.
