Review of Even Cowgirls Get the Blues (1994) by Josh G — 01 Jun 2007

I have to give at least one star to Van Sant for having the bravery to make a Robbins book into a film. Unfortunately, he did a very bad job. I really wanted to like the movie, too, but it seems like he was trying to get too much in too fast, and so major characters in the book (like Sissy's husband) are minor characters here (played by Keanu Reeves) and should have just been cut out of the film altogether.

Thanks for trying, but try again.
