Review of The Whole Wide World (1996) by Jim D — 16 May 2007

Novalyn Price must have thought her relationship with Robert E. Howard (the man who brought us the character Conan the Barbarian) was interesting enough to write her memoirs over 40 years after his death. And, someone must have thought it was interesting enough to make a film about. And, someone must have done a fine job of selling what an interesting story it was to get Renee Zellwegger and Vincent D'Onofrio on board.

Sadly, something MUST have gotten lost in the translation somewhere along the way because, I found very little of interest in the film. I contemplated turning it off after an hour. It doesn't rank high enough to go on my 'Movies so Bad it HURTS' list...but, it's a hell of a long way from something I'd recommend either.
