Customer Reviews
Pleasant romance
Diane Keaton and Diane Lane, two of my favorites, bring this movie to life. Sam Shephard is, as always, dynamic in his role. The story is only a bit predictable; there are a couple of surprises. The acting is superb throughout. Definitely worth having on your shelf if you are a Keaton, Lane, or Shephard fan. We'll certainly be watching it again!
Love is difficult
Reece (Sam Shepard) loves Carol (Diane Keaton), and Carol loves Reece, but Reece can't commit to Carol until it's too late. Also, Reece's son, Tom (Robert Patrick), loves Katherine (Diane Lane) and, eventually, Katherine loves Tom. But, Reece has to step in and make Tom go after Katherine so that Tom doesn't suffer the same fate as he (Reece) does. On the whole, this little film, which was shot mostly in Lockhart, Texas, and directed by Pete Masterson, ain't too bad. The actors do a good job, and the movie shows us viewers a little more about the joys, sorrows, and complications of life and love. It's an enjoyable film.
A MUST SEE!!! BEST LOVE STORY, EVER!!!!
This is, without a doubt, the best love story. Diane Keaton and Sam Shepherd are terrific. A great all-star cast. Be prepared to laugh and cry. Great story from beginning to end. You'll want to watch it again and again.
Introspective...
This has been one of my favorite movies for a long time, so I finally bought it. No falsehoods here - the relationships portrayed are so real that the viewer wants to grab the characters like old friends and counsel them. This film leaves us all needing to re-evaluate what is going on with our own lives.
WIll They or Won't They?
The title, The Only Thrill, doesn't fit this film, which is about a decades-long bittersweet relationship between the characters played by Diane Keaton and Sam Shepherd. While it's obvious to the viewer that these two eccentrics are soul mates, it takes them most of the film to come to the same conclusion. A secondary plot involves her daughter and his son, whose own relationship begins to mirror that of their parents.
This slow moving, but satisfying film, with all the missed opportunities between the couple, can be frustrating to watch at times, but the performances of Diane Keaton and Sam Shepherd make it worth seeing more than once. They also made a great pair in the film Baby Boom.
