Movie Reviews of One From the Heart
Movie Review: still great after all these years
Summary: 5 Stars
of all the films coppola ever created, here's one that really got the short end of the stick & for no apparent reasons. don't get me wrong, i've never seen a coppola masterpiece that i didn't like but this is my all-time favorite. sorry, godather & apocalypse. :( initially, i'd seen this film on hbo or showtime in the early eighties. i remember watching with my mom at the age of 10 & how much she loved the film. i, too, loved the visuals & the whole romantic concept here so i looked for the film on vhs many years later but never found any much to my dismay. either one from the heart went out of print or extremely hard to find as no one seemed to remember the film or could find any listings. after reading online that one from the heart was hitting dvd this past year & being re-released to theatres, i knew i would have to own this film but wasn't sure how it would look after all these years. that's nearly 18-19 years folks!! well, i watched it this afternoon (with my mom)& it looks as good as it did back in the eighties if not better perhaps & i had the same emotions while watching as i did way back then. that's amazing!! i haven't had time to look at the complete package of extras which encompasses the two dvds but i will definately take the time soon. hey, this film is great even without the long list of special features & i would be a proud owner even if i didn't get a single trailer, deleted scene, or any chapters just so i could own this film. ok, you've heard my sentimental little story so now let me give you the skinny on the film. it's hard to compare one from the heart to anything else made around the same time but the film is almost like a fairytale & there is something quite magical about the experience. from the opening music by tom waits(he sounded quite good back then compared to now)& the very talented crystal gayle to the oh-so heartfelt ending, you are glued to the screen. the story unfold with a couple who've been together for nearly 5 years in vegas & are about to celebrate their anniversary. needless to say, they love each other but the marriage isn't very exciting. he doesn't spend much money on her & they never step foot out of the house. what's a girl like frannie to do? it's time to step out to search for romance, adventure, or to find out what she's been missing. will this couple ever get back together again? will frannie fulfill her dream of going to bora-bora? watch this beautiful, magnificent film for yourself & find out. although i didn't see this film in the theatres sad to say, i am so glad i fianlly own it on dvd & will watch this for years to come. thank you fantoma & coppola for bringing the magic back into my life once again. you've made me a happy gent. frederic forrest & teri garr, i love you both!!!
Summary of One From the Heart
From the director of Apocalypse Now and The Godfather comes a different kind of love story...Legendary director Francis Ford Coppola shines his spotlight on a Las Vegas couple (Teri Garr, Frederic Forrest) whose break-up on the 4th of July leads them both to a night on the strip in pursuit of their romantic fantasies (Raul Julia, Nastassia Kinski). But in this town of gamblers and dreamers, should they bet it all on dreams, or give true love another roll of the dice? Featuring breathtaking design, show-stopping set pieces, the stunning photography of Vittorio Storaro (Apocalypse Now, The Last Emperor) and accompanied by the wonderful Oscar® nominated music of the one and only Tom Waits, this neon explosion of color, sound and innovation is a cinematic valentine for all movie lovers.
