Uma Thurman was also in Batman and Robin the same year she did Gattaca. Also Cameron Daiz was also in My Best Friend's Wedding and Head Above Water when she did A Life Less Ordinary in 1997 as well.
The reason the two angels become work for the father is to stop anyone else from doing it and potentially splitting the two mains apart. They're putting on an act to make sure the McGreggor and Diaz fall in love, putting them in peril to bring them closer together. How they didn't get that is beyond me. A Life Less Ordinary isn't a perfect film, but it makes sense.
Gene really dumped on House of Yes and the Jackie-O character. Maybe he didn't realize this was a play originally and that was part of it. Yes, Roger mentioned it was based on a play but that may have been the first time Gene heard about that.
Just because the future proposed in the movie is a conservative one doesn’t mean that the movie itself promotes that. In fact the hero is resistant to the conservatism around him. Most conservatives are bad at reviewing films because they see what they want rather than what is presented.
these two would tell you 75 percent of a movie and if you did not like that tough popcorn.....thats how it went down. people were tougher back then.....
