Another Woman's Husband

This is a great story about friendship in this case It is Gail O'Grady And Lisa Rinna's friendship. Gail O'Grady's marriage is on the rocks and her husband is always away and Lisa Rinna finds the man of her dreams (which happens to be Gail O'Grady's husband) This is not giving anything away you find this out like 15minutes into the story also in The previews For the movie they tell you that they both are involved with the same man. anyways, Johnnie (Gail O'Grady's husband) asks Lisa to go to the Bahamas with him but she is afraid of water because of a tragic incident that she witnessed and Gail is a swim teacher who Lisa calls for lessons and that is how the two meet. Also Lisa Rinna did not know Johnnie was married especially not to her new best friend. This a powerful story and I loved it. I totally give it 10 stars!!!!!!

If you like swimming or hate it, this is the film for you. There are lots of funny and enjoyable Senior Citizen's swimming all around and especially a face from the past, Charlotte Rae,(Betsy) "Facts of Life",'79 TV Series, who gives Gail O'Grady,(Susan Miller),"NYPD Blue,'93 TV Series, lots of smiles and support. Susan and Johnny Miller/Jake, are husband and wife and were childhood sweethearts, the marriage is going sour and Donna Hanover (Psychologist)who adds to the problems with her fear of the water and the hots for Susan's husband Johnny/Jake. This is a very enjoyable film and worthwhile viewing. It was great seeing Charlotte Rae, who was a great star in "FACTS OF LIFE" !

You can love or hate a movie, or character, but it's difficult to proclaim any given story, performance, actor, director, etc., the best or worst, your most or least favored, ever, etc. Superlatives are only correctly used for one of anything - and if you discover one anew, it must surpass all others if it is truly a superlative.

Well, honestly, I have several after watching this picture - and all with regard to the Midkiff character Johnny/Jake.

Hands down, he's the MOST unsympathetic, dull, insipid, uncharismatic character I've EVER viewed.

He evokes the LEAST amount of empathy or trace of caring in any regard for what happens to him, or for the trials he might endure as a result of his duplicity. There is no way a character could be more annoying.

The two female leads are both engaging, sympathetic (for the most part), and certainly a pleasure to view. They were both screwed-up in their own ways, but who in this movie genre isn't? And the conclusion brought proper resolution.

(Whenever I watch a film with a character very annoying, like Midkiff's here, I wish the director would have hired an actor resembling Moe from the Three Stooges - and that "Moe" would proceed to bash him with a mallet, poke him in the eyes, and give him hard slaps, the way he would to Curly and Larry.)

has a dual role as a dependent housewife stuck in a relationship with Dale Midkiff, who becomes bored, and strays. Lisa Rinna is the other woman, and does quite well, although it is a bit hard to imagine her as a Ph.D.

Without spoiling the story I will just say that this a movie worth watching. Gail O'Grady used to play the bimbo parts in NYPD blue, but I now have to update my movies with her as another favorite.

She plays a swimming instructor to senior citizens, who is excellent at her job, but has emotional problems within her own life (Sally Kirkland plays her flighty, alcoholic mother). She has failed to value herself as a person, putting all her energy into the marriage with Midkiff.

While the direction is a bit flawed, the story line is believable, and O'Grady's performance is worth seeing. There is a surprise ending.

Leaden tale of two women in love with the same man, who frankly doesn't deserve even a passing interest from either of them. Supposedly a "sisterhood conquers all" story the characters were 1 dimensional and the dialogue was at times laughable - but not funny. I'm glad you haven't got the running time on the site as then I would know exactly how many minutes of my life I wasted watching this movie.
