Something to Talk About - 1995 * * * *

A story about husbands, wives, parents, children and other natural disasters.

I've never heard of this movie but for some reason discovered it on my laptop last night. It really was a worthwhile film and Julia Roberts was as always brilliant in her role.

Roberts plays Grace, who after finding out that her husband (played greasily by Dennis Quaid) has been unfaithful to her flees to her parents farm to find herself again. However once her proud and overbearing parents find out the reason for her arrival it sets to turn the whole family upside down. Dennis Quaid was brilliant as the philandering husband who doesn't understand the impact of his actions ( how typically male).

I really enjoyed this and am encouraged to watch more of Julia Roberts' work.
