This is not a final destination, but it's a good milestone along the way. And even if the autonomy talks fail, about 90% of what I am describing we could do unilaterally. There never would have been open bridges between Israel and Jordan if we had waited for King Hussein's signature; not even Henry Kissinger could have negotiated that one. The Palestinians want peace and they're ripe for some kind of settlement. I'm convinced it can be done...

The film's statement, that love is madness, seems only partly comic; and it is an open question during most of Head over Heels whether this madness is a desirable condition. Di rector Joan Micklin Silver lets the action and Heard's characterization veer close to the actual, unfunny sort of in sanity.
