A rather over-sentimentalised romantic drama about the wife of a war-hero who falls in love with a paraplegic 'Nam vet. The drama is underplayed, and cliched in places, and Jane Fonda, despite a sterling attempt, comes across as just a bit too saintly. The ending adds credibilty though.

HEAVEN AND EARTH (1993)
Certification15 Our Rating
Stone's third, after Platoon and Born on the Fourth of July, Vietnam War offering, this time seen through the eyes of a young Vietnamese girl caught up in the horror. Tommy Lee Jones gives a sensitive performance as the soldier trying to save both her and himself. Well crafted human drama and a moving love story.
