A great film, with wonderful performances from all, especially Lange, who plays her role so delicately that the viewer is never able to get the sort of hold on Bette that would do injustice to the novel. The most remarkable thing about this film however is Elisabeth Shue's singing which is... odd. But this is all in all a brilliant film with a depth of character and strength of plot (the ending leaves one empty for days) that makes it highly rewarding.
