...great and to con the local crooks. Well, no. As played by Jeff Bridges and Kim Basinger, they are an "un" couple: unsuitable emotionally, underdeveloped dramatically. The picture is plenty handsome, and Glenne Headly and Rip Torn have some fun as a lost lady and the meanest guy in Austin, Texas. Still, Nadine, an agreeable entertainment, is a disappointment from a fine filmmaker. This shaggy tale of his native state has a place in Benton's heart...
