Summary
This **Oscar**-winner dazzled critics and audiences alike with its believable, insightful story of a mother and daughter, unforgettably played by Shirley MacLaine and Debra Winger. From grand slapstick to deepest sentiment, director James L. Brooks masterfully paints scenes from their evolving 30-year relationship. Jack Nicholson turns in a great comic performance as MacLaine's neighbor, a boozy, womanizing former astronaut. Winner of five **Academy Awards,** including Best Picture, and four **Golden Globes.** Winner of a **BAFTA** for Best Actress (Shirley MacLaine). *"Brooks' dialogue is wonderful throughout and all the characters carry off their assignments beautifully." - James Harwood, **Variety***
