Aaron's Thoughts
Some great performances at the center, but I never really clicked with the actual story as much as the movie wants you to. It kind of felt more annoying than sweet, if that makes sense? Speaking of the performances, I know Hoffman won an Oscar for this, but it’s Valeria Golino that really surprised me. The film really suffers when she is no longer apart of the journey & then immediately draws you back in when she shows up again in Vegas.
