Grand Canyon (1991)
7/10
interesting twists and turns.
10 September 2021
Some big namers in this one...Danny Glover, Kevin Kline, Steve Martin. When Mack breaks down in the rough part of Los Angeles, he meets up with Simon, the tow dude, who helps get him out of a tough spot. In more ways than one! And the very next day, his friend in show biz gets shot during a mugging. And his wife finds an abandoned baby. And wants to adopt it. A story about intersecting lives. Chance happenings, good and bad. An interesting ongoing theme of the grand canyon through-out the film... symbol of how fragile and insignificant each person is in the scheme of things. It's long but it's very good! Some interesting ideas, and some clever, funny moments. Story by Larry and Meg Kasdan; directed by Larry Kasdan. Nominated for FOUR oscars...Big Chill, Accidental Tourist, two for Grand Canyon!
