For anyone who has lost a loved one, Moonlight Mile will ring true with heartfelt emotion. Like the characters in this well-acted film, writer-director Brad Silberling confronted death when his girlfriend, actress Rebecca Schaeffer, was murdered in 1989. That tragedy gives Moonlight Mile its mournful authenticity, beginning in 1973 after the killing of a young woman whose fiancé, Joe (Jake Gyllenhaal), is living with her grieving parents (Dustin Hoffman, Susan Sarandon) while contemplating his uncertain future. The film is occasionally sidetracked by Hollywood slickness, but Silberling (who scored box-office hits with Casper and City of Angels) gets the emotional details exactly right, and a potentially formulaic romance between Joe and a local girl (superbly played by newcomer Ellen Pompeo) feels like a natural step toward recovery. Holly Hunter plays a small but pivotal role, and while Moonlight Mile lacks the gravity of the dramatically similar In the Bedroom, it springs from the same source of compassionate understanding. --Jeff Shannon

I agree with the other poster, this should have gained a better recognition. I had never heard of it until today, I happened to catch it on tv, unfortunate because I had to deal with commercials. A sad movie but excellent acting, a lot of familiar faces and a wonderful story. Will own this soon.

i don't understand why terrific movies like moonlight mile don't get the kudos and attention it deserves. this movie's offbeat story is truly refreshing. to say it's a story about a family grieving over the loss of their daughter is almost an oversimplification. there is soooo much more going on here, and its not served up to us on a platter. there is mystery, interesting characters, suspense, super dialogue, and perfectly placed moments of non-dialogue. what a great script. i would classify this ...

This is a movie about coming to terms with the death of a loved one. Diane Floss gets murdered as she enters adulthood after getting caught in someone else's domestic dispute (wrong place, wrong time)...The movie centers around her father (Dustin Hoffman), her mother (Susan Sarandon) and her fiancee (Jake Gylenhaal), and how they all cope with the grief. Mother and father want to hold onto as much of their daughter as possible and as a result, find it hard to let go of their would-be son-in-law...This ... Read More

Good premise and story line, for the most part a decent dialog, outstanding acting (except for the sleepwalking Gyllenhaal), so what's missing? What's missing is plausibility. A movie about grief doesn't have to dwell on it, but it MUST show early on that the grief is there. If this is done properly, the viewer will accept even the most outlandish behavior as a character's way of dealing with that grief. Kasdan did it brilliantly in 'The Big Chill,' with a mere thirty seconds of Glenn Close sobbing ... Read More

In 1971 'The Rolling Stones' recorded a beautiful track entitled 'Moonlight Mile' which is about being away from the ones you love. In the song he sings the words "I am just living to be lying by your side" and in those words we get it...we understand, and that is why this song, this title is so appropriate for a film of this grander. Susan Surandon and Dustin Hoffman star in this beautiful and touching film about losing the most important thing in your life, your child. Diana is engaged to Joe (Gyllenhaal ... Read More
