I was stunned when I watched this movie. I had never heard of it and when I saw it was a Barry Levinson movie and the cast, I was really curious, so I gave it a shot and I was absolutely blown-away by the quality and, above all, the honesty of this sad movie.
It should have been a major hit, but it missed with critics and the audience. The scale of tragedy is almost classic Greek.
Kevin Bacon and Dustin Hoffman deserved supporting actor praise for it. Also, I think it's John Williams' single best score ever.
What an example of film-making. Unfortunately, it's almost unknown and highly underrated. 8/10
