SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Jamie Lee Curtis obviously bonded with Wendy Wasserstein in a special way in this production. The life she gave to the character of Heidi Holland transcended acting and writing. The movie profiles Heidi as she raises her consciousness and her humanity by learning from life. The movie has a marvelous sense of humor and an even more delicious sense of irony. But it never sacrifices the integrity of any of its characters to score with a gag. Tom Hulce is marvelous as the boy who loves her but finds he also needs to get more in touch with who he is before he can commit. Peter Friedman, who played the father in the TV-series Brooklyn Bridge, is marvelous as the confident, yet shallow, Scoop Rosenberg. Sharon Lawrence and Roma Maffia are terrific in supporting roles.The direction from Wendy Wasserstein is quite impressive for a novice. The pacing is always brisk, but never brusque. The scenes weave seamlessly together like a perfect cross-stitch.I watch this movie in the aftermath of the World Trade Center terrorism. I desperately needed something to lift my spirits. The Heidi Chronicles did that job, and much more. It is a terrific movie.

Really a good movie! About woman(actually about all people),about life,about very basic elements in everyone's life... One of the most important points is:Peter and his friend Heidi, the difference between them and the common points of them, it makes you realize something simple but important...

This movie was incredibly bad. It had a terrible ear for dialogue, and for the kinds of choices middle-class, feminist women have had to deal with over the decades. Why is it that so many writers get that period so wrong? I could not watch it through to the end.

The picture was sad and wistful, but a pleasant diversion from the current run of violent and de-humanizing films. It was curious that: !. The rental I viewed did not include a list of the major actors in the credits but went on endlessly to list everyone else who came within a`mile of the studio! Tres Strangeaux!!!! 2. On the other hand, your list of characters showed the name of some of the actors but did not include the role they played. Tres Sloppi!!!!
