UNHOOK THE STARS
(U.S., 1996 103. min.)
Gena Rowlands plays Mildred,
a financially secure widow whose husband has left her
a comfortable suburban house that she now shares with
her rebellious teenage daughter, Ann Mary Margaret.
After yet another loud argument with her mother, Ann
Mary takes off with her boyfriend, leaving Mildred
alone in the oversize house. Director Nick Cassavetes
provides a light, benevolent view of a widow's suburban
life. Mildred is alone, but she's not isolated or miserable. She
accepts her new situation with grace, dignity and pride,
all perfectly embodied by Rowlands. Emanuel Levy, Variety
