RefreshingWhen I first saw this movie I thought it was the cutest thing. It brings up an issue that is rarely addressed in the media. The two people in this story are disabled and yet through their difficulties they manage to find each other and offer support. Though it is a romantic comedy and follows the usual template, it is unique because of the circumstances..Score: 4/5

Respectful, Heartwarming and a Lot of FunThe Other Sister is one of the best romantic comedies I've seen and one of the few that I'm willing to own. I've worked with young people with mental disabilities my whole life, and Lewis and Ribisi are respectful and spot on. Carla and Daniel have so much fun together on screen, that when I wasn't smiling or crying, I was laughing my head off. This movie is the way romantic comedies are supposed to be..Score: 5/5

Grazie ai suoi enormi sforzi e all'assidua frequentazione di una scuola specializzata è riuscita a imparare a diventare più autonoma. Sua madre Elizabeth, che continua ad avere nei suoi confronti un atteggiamento iperprotettivo, non riesce ad accettare che Carla si sia innamorata di Danny un ragazzo afflitto da un lieve handicap mentale. Carla vuole provare a sua madre che malgrado le apparenze è sufficientemente spigliata per diventare un adulta responsabile.

Ebben a szívet melengető, keserédes romantikus vígjátékban Carla Tate, a szellemileg kissé visszamaradott 24 éves lány, miután éveket töltött egy bentlakásos magániskolában (ahol hozzá hasonló, problémás gyerekeket oktatnak), sikeresen igyekszik túllépni saját korlátain - csupán anyja, Elizabeth túlzó oltalma alól nehéz szabadulnia. Az iskola elvégzése után Carla álmokkal és vágyakkal telve tér vissza otthonába, ám Elizabeth kétségbeesve szemléli lánya önmegvalósítási törekvéseit. Amikor Carla életében először szerelmes lesz, szembeszáll anyja aggodalmával, mert be akarja bizonyítani, hogy - minden látszat ellenére - képes felnőtté válni, és érett a szerelemre. Carla ás barátja, Danny együtt indulnak el az önfelfedezés rögös útján, hogy választ keressenek az élet súlyos kérdéseire, és megbirkózzanak a hétköznapi élet kihívásaival, ami olykor rendkívüli próbatétel elé állítja őket.

Em pouco tempo Carla e Danny estão namorando e já pensam em se casar.

Teammates Madonna, Lori Petty and Rosie O'Donnell round out the roster, taking the team to the World Series.

Overboard (1987) summary, synopsis, reviews
Overboard (1987)Comedy1987

A kind of African Queen gone berserk, "Overboard" chronicles the misadventures of a bitchy society queen (Goldie Hawn) who lives on a luxury yacht with her class-conscious husband (Edward Herrmann) and put-upon butler (Roddy McDowall). When the yacht docks for "repairs" (that is, for more closet space), Hawn refuses to pay the local carpenter (Kurt Russell) because he used oak instead of cedar for the closets. The post-refusal argument results in Hawn pushing Russel overboard. Hawn falls overboard herself and is rescued by a garbage scow. However, she remembers nothing of her pampered past. Through a series of high-energy, high-wit escapades the two protagonists find each other, the kids turn into lollipops and all is well that ends well. Garry Marshall directed with aplomb.
