Industry Reviews
"...An original....Elijah Wood, in particular, holds the screen -- he has a beautifully inquisitive face, with eyes like liquid marbles..."
Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman (02/28/1992)
"...Evans's thoughtful script and the unclichéd performances of Wood and Mazzello exert a powerful grip. The film stays with you..."
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers (03/19/1992)
