Editorial Review:
Amazon.com essential video:
Garry Marshall (Pretty Woman) directs the screen adaptation of Terence McNally's play Frankie and Johnny at the Clair de Lune, the story of a short-order cook (Al Pacino) who drives a waitress (Michelle Pfeiffer) crazy with his adamant courtship and mixed messages. The film is okay and not much more than that, the major stumbling block being Marshall's failure to scrub away enough star veneer on Pacino and Pfeiffer to accept them as minimum-wage drones with nowhere to go but toward each other. Fortunately, Marshall's feel for the texture offered by supporting players--Hector Elizondo as a café owner, Nathan Lane as Pfeiffer's inevitably gay neighbor-buddy, Kate Nelligan as another lonely waitress--keeps things interesting enough. --Tom Keogh

My husband and I love this movie because of its unabashed romanticism --- and the clair de lune piece at the end. in fact, we loved it so much, we used clair de lune at our wedding 8 years ago. al pacino is lovable and earnest and perserving; michelle pfieffer (nothing can cover up such gorgeousness)is touching and sad and funny; nathan lane is hysterical;hector elizando is lovable; kate nelligan is just perfect; loved the rest of the cast. it's a dear story (don't need to repeat it here) about ...

I absolutely love watching this movie even tough it has some painful moments. The story line is believable and the chemistry between Al Pacino and Michelle Pfeiffer is simply fantastic with their love making a real turn on. Even the restaurant scenes make me hungry. And how can you not enjoy Nathan Lane?

This is a great, and I think, realistic love story. It's about taking a chance on another person, and on another relationship after you've been hurt by someone else - or just by life in general. It's about taking emotional chances and "allowing" yourself to fall in love.
This film was very well acted by two of my favorite actors. It's mostly drama with just enough comedy to reach the perfect balance. I could watch it over and over!

Frankie and Johnny starring Michelle Pfeiffer and Al Pacino is a sweet, emotional, and honest film about trust, finding and accepting love. Pfeiffer is perfectly cast as a lonely and introverted Frankie, she is a waitress and against her wishes she falls for an ex-jail bird named Johnny, who is now a short-order cook where she works. Frankie is afraid of being in a real relationship due to past events, but slowly and surely, Johnny tries to heal her from previous wounds. Their chemistry is spot-on ... Read More
