Consider both Mrs. Spielbergs, Amy Irving (the ex) and Kate Capshaw (the current). Both were achingly beautiful ingenues with great leading lady potential 20 years ago. Both fell short of the hopes of their fans. Both married and bore children to gazillionare and archdirector Steven Spielberg. Both attempted mid-life comebacks after having developed an exceptional degree of character and full-bloom sexuality. But Amy Irving gets CARRIED AWAY (1996), one of the best small films of the 90s, while Kate gets this turkey.
One can almost feel the ghost of Spielberg haunting the set: "I want more padding on that nipple _now_!" What could have been the most memorable homage to mature sex since THE POSTMAN ALWAYS RINGS TWICE (1981) was rendered chaste and sterile by script and direction.
