The listing, VHS WINONA RYDER STARS IN "AMERICAN QUILT" Passion,Betrayal,Joy and some tears.EXCELLENT has ended.
While her live-in boyfriend Sam (Dermot Mulroney) is finishing work on the fixer-upper they share in the city, (Winona Ryder )will spend the summer on her grandmother's farm, finishing her thesis. Though Sam seems to be solid husband material with plans to settle down with Finn and have kids, Finn balks.
. Winona is especially adorable as she is semi-reluctantly involved in a flirtation!!! OH YEAH! with a local named Leon (Johnathon Schaech, seductive)) she meets him at the community pool. Those beguiling doe's eyes--not even the arresting officers could resist their charm. Leon's family grows strawberries, and later he will tempt her with freshly picked strawberries, still warm from the sun, all the more enticing for being forbidden fruit. YUM!
Finn starts to learn more about her grandmother's and great aunts' past lives. The ladies are sewing their love stories into the pieces of the quilt (flashbacks) Constance (Kate Nelligan), who now scares small children, was once a diver. Great Aunt Glady Joe Cleary (Anne Bancroft) is Mrs. Robinson! Well, I mean, she played Mrs. Robinson in The Graduate, and we have actors of that caliber; in American Quilt they are even more experienced and have honed their talent to an even sharper point. Ellen Burstyn plays Finn's Grandmother Hy Dodd, and the two sisters share a secret about Glady, Joe's husband Arthur, played by Rip Torn, real name Elmore Rual . Rip Torn really lived up to his name when he was found sprawled on the floor of the building in his hometown of Salisbury late at night, clutching a loaded revolver while reportedly drunk.WOW! GOOD MOVIE!! VG condition with light creases Still lookin' good!!
