Movie Haiku:Holly Hunter is the rudderless daughter of a tight-knit family. Abandoned by her long-time lover, she soon marries a man totally different from anyone she’s ever known before. Her family tries to accept him, with only sporadic success. Warm. Wise. Beautifully acted. Danny Aiello is a stand out as Dad.
