It is a pretty remarkable performance from Ruehl; I’d forgotten this nabbed her an Oscar, but it’s well deserved. It’s a very fine fit for Robin Williams, who’s at his best when he’s lending heartfelt sincerity to offbeat characters. Gilliam’s theatrical instincts overwhelm the material at times, but damned if he doesn’t nail the romantic moments. The waltz through Grand Central Station is beautifully, magically breathtaking.
