"White Oleander", I didn`t really know what to expect from this movie and I initially only bought it couse I don`t mind Michelle Pfieffer.
I have to say it was quite a good movie, though I have not read the book as many holds as superiour and thus give a negative review of the film.
For me I enjoyed it and in particular Alison Lohmans performance as Michelle Pfieffers daughter.
"When a man loves a woman", for some reason this movie always gets to me couse it is one of the main reasons I started watching more dramamovies as a teenager.
In my opinion Meg Ryan`s best performance supported well indeed by Andy Garcia as they play a married couple in which Ryan is an alcoholic.
The movie has mainly two strongpoints besides being well acted by the main characters and that is the somewhat different angle in which we see alcohol abuse and the performance of the two childactors that play their daughters which makes it more believeable.
I always end up in tears somewhere along the story when I watch this movie.
