Dance teacher Larry Kozinski (Ted Danson) has teenage son Mitch and is married to second wife Tish (Sean Young) for a couple of years. He goes to his uncle Phil's wedding to Edie. Edie's daughter Maria (Isabella Rossellini) is married to womanizing car salesman Tom Hardy (William Petersen) and they have a daughter named Chloe. Tom and Tish have a fling at the wedding. Later, he ends all of his affairs. Larry and Maria hang out. They suspect their partners' cheating. When Phil dies, Larry's father Vincent (Lloyd Bridges) attends the funeral.
There is a possibility that Joel Schumacher may not be the best choice as director for this type of movie. He's saved by a charming coupling of Isabella Rossellini and Ted Danson. Young and Petersen are good foils. There is so much warmth coming from Rossellini that she is able to drive the story through some melodrama. Her smile can light up the world and it shines through on that train platform.
