Rating: - If you enjoy the Kate Chopin book The Awakening see this!!!
I love this movie. Kate Chopin is one of my favorite writers and this film is a wonderful adaptaion of the Awakening! I highly suggest this movie. It is a movie with a strong female lead and can be called a "chick flick" but it is a wonderful movie.

Kelly McGillis and Adrian Pasdar are both beautiful and spell-binding to watch as always. The plot is interesting but this is a very slow-moving romantic-novel type film. It comes across like a stereotypical "chick-flick."
