They watch and Billy Bob Thornton makes a cameo that represents the best acting in this sappy melodrama, especially when he proclaims that RedfordРІР‚в„ўs John Gage character is so rich that РІР‚Сљhe probably gets more pussy than you can shake a stick at!РІР‚Сњ In ways, Thornton is perhaps channeling his upcoming role in Primary Colors (1996) as a fowl mouthed campaign advisor. Around that time, RedfordРІР‚в„ўs billionaire character enters the scene, playing high stakes poker as the couple is about to leave Vegas. If thatРІР‚в„ўs fanciful, the directorРІР‚в„ўs plot then shows the couple losing it all on day 2 at the casino. On the first day their plan is working, having won about half of what they owe, around $25,000. In an attempt to get out of default, they go on a trip to Vegas in hopes of striking it rich at the roulette game. Maintaining their property despite the early 1990s recession is built into the plot and the couple faces a dreaded foreclosure. Spoilers ahead, Moore and Harrelson play a couple that is struggling financially despite her professional job as a realtor and his as an architect. Quite simply, LyneРІР‚в„ўs vision of EngelhardРІР‚в„ўs novel suffers from an archaic notion that men own their wives, and stepping outside the bounds of holy matrimony is the fault of the wife (even if her husband consents to it). The entire plot is doomed by an antiquated conception of gender roles and a wifeРІР‚в„ўs place in her marriage and society. The film has overtones of class in late twentieth century America and brings up issues of marital trust.

Starring Demi Moore, Woody Harrelson, and a surprisingly bad performance by Robert Redford, the movie centers around the way a billionaire tycoon weasels his way into the lives of a struggling married couple. Adrian LyneРІР‚в„ўs adaptation of the novel with the same name by Jack Engelhard has to go down as one of the sappiest melodramas to have ever graced the cinamaplex screen.
