Household Saints (1993)
Great Multi-Generational Tale of Italian-Americans
9 January 1999 - 5 out of 5 users found this review helpful.
This movie is an absolutely superb tale about family life for Italian-American Catholics. It starts out at the tale of how one man wins the hand in marriage of another man's daughter in a pinochle game, and continues in twists and turns to compel any audience watching it right up until the movie's end. Subtle metaphors teach us lessons about life and Tracy Ullman in what is no doubt the greatest performance of her movie career shows us that she has a range none of us knew before. A great film.

Life Is Sweet (1990)
Another Great Film from Mike Leigh
18 November 1998 - 4 out of 5 users found this review helpful.
Mike Leigh treats us to another masterpiece with Life is Sweet, a superb tale of about 4 days in the life of a family in upper-lower-middle class England. Actors in this film really show their full range when scenes go from powerful to hilarious.
