Editorial Review: Some called it a snooze-fest, while others tearfully clutched their Kleenex. In any case, Clint Eastwood was an unusual and (as it turned out) perceptive choice to direct and costar in this lush adaptation of Robert James Waller's phenomenally bestselling novel. Meryl Streep costars as Francesca, the lonely Iowa farmer's wife who is instantly attracted to Robert (Eastwood), the photographer from National Geographic who is in the area to photograph the bridges along Iowa's rural roadways. The two fall in love while Francesca's husband and children are away at a county fair, but the story's passion and lasting appeal derive from their decision to part forever after just a few brief days of intimate connection. Superbly acted with an emphasis on quiet, graceful moments of tender revelation, the film builds to a crescendo of powerful and conflicting emotions. Like David Lean's Brief Encounter (to which it bears marked similarities), The Bridges of Madison County is destined to become one of the classic movie love stories. --Jeff Shannon

This is a film that I first dismissed as corny, but as time has passed I can now appreciate the struggles of the protagonists in middle-age angst, tempted by the overwhelming feelings that love can bring. The book was horrific tripe, but the film is done well, thanks to C Eastwood who is masterful as a director and actor, not to mention to the incredible Ms. Streep (as always!)
Rating: - WONDERFUL LOVE, ROMANCE DRAMA
BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY THE NAME SPEAKS FOR IT SELF, MY WIFE ENJOYS THIS MOVIES AS WELL AS ME. SEE THIS MOVIE SHOWS WHAT CAN HAPPEN IN YOUR LIFE WHEN THERE IS SO MUCH ROUTINE AND HOW YOU CAN KEEP A SECRET SO BOT TO HURT ANYONE BY KNOWING YOU MADE A MISTAKE. THEN YOU MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR YOUR FAMILY EVEN THOUGH YOU FEKT TRAP. SO I RECOMMEND TO MAKE THIS A MOVIE NIGHT WITH POPCORN AND SPEND SOME QUALITY TIME WITH THE SPOUSE SO IT DONT HAPPEN TO YOU.
