...Ignored and unloved anywhere but in France, the Brooklyn-based director turns from tortured crime movies (The Yards, We Own the Night) to a story of romantic obsession: after a couple of suicide attempts, a young man (Joaquin Phoenix) falls in love with a troubled rich girl (Gwyneth Paltrow) rather than the nice girl (Vinessa Shaw) his parents want him to marry. This is one long toothache of a movie, painfully earnest, not preposterous enough to be enjoyed as camp, and a waste of some very good actors.

Karen Allen, 56, who was Indy's saucy love Marion Ravenwood in Raiders, still has that glittering smile and vestiges of her old elfin swagger. They needn't break a sweat keeping up with...
...does he have fond memories of manager Don King, whom he accused of stealing millions from him, and he beat up and stomped down at the Beverly Hills Hotel: "a wretched, slimy, reptilian motherf----r." Nor of the entourage a kid from the streets attracts when he becomes a rich dude with no sense of fiscal moderation: "They suck my blood and suck my blood, then sell it back to me and suck it again...
