User Reviews: The Other Sister (1999)
different is beautiful
Pros: sound, acting story line,
Cons: not matted (enhanced) but is letterboxed 2:35.1
I remember seeing this move come to the big screen and noticed that Juliet Lewis was in it. I love her performance a great deal. Well tonight I finally got a chance to see this heart warming movie on DVD. I am a huge fan of Keaton as well. His performance here is unique and vast. She will always amaze me in her acting if it is from movies like Crimes of the Heart to The First Wives Club, Father of the Bride, even Baby boom. She will forever be an amazing talent woman, of acting in my book. I saw Lewis for the first time in The Evening Star yet another fine film that is a sequel Terms of Endearment. This move is well directed and well paced as well. I was about give up on it about 45 min into the move talking about the story line. But I was so trapped with Keaton's performance that I gave it a chance. I am glad I did. The story came around in more ways than one. It is a beautiful love story about two special people that fall in love and are given a hard time form people around them (e.g. Keaton the mother). Her role as a mother of three daughters tends to be over protecting. She wants to run their lives as she sees fit, not to what makes them happy. It is a test of emotional fitness between Keaton and Lewis (mother and daughter) that makes it worth seeing. The performance of Ribisi presented here is amazing too. The chemistry between Lewis and Ribisi are very special that keeps the warmth in this movie alive. The Other Sister will warm your heart, make you laugh and bring tears of joy to your eyes. This is a must have to anybodys DVD collection. The only flaw as far as picture is it was not enhanced for 16:9 TVS. I guess we cannot win them all.

This movie is a work of art. I don't know when I have been moved so much. I was so impressed by the entire cast and story line that shows a family as a whole can be supportive and understanding...and giving up isn't an opiton;even though it may take an entire movie to get there!Excellent movie!

"The Other Sister" is one of the most enjoyable and compelling movies I have seen. The acting is suburb; the plot is moving but more importantly the relationship between Danny and Carla is so beautiful and believable. This is a MOST SEE for anyone who wants to see Academy Award winning performances.

Was this review helpful? Yes - NoA highly enjoyable and touching movie.
Juliette Lewis and Giovanni Ribisi give great performances as mentally impaired young adults. One can't help but want these two to fall in love and be together to take on the challenging world they live in. This is definitely a "feel-good" movie you could watch again and again.

I think that this is one of the very best movies that I have ever saw. It is very funny, and at the same time, very sad. It is a good movie, and the actor were all VERY brillant. I have to admit that I did cry at the movie, and I am not ashamed to admit that. So, if you have not seen this movie, Please do so!!! Thank You......................
