Butterflies Are Free: Review

starstarstarstar
Free spirit Hawn helps timid, intelligent, young blind man Albert break away from the overprotection of his mother, Heckart. At first resenting the girl's intrusion into her son's life (which includes a few lessons in sex), Heckart finally realizes that her son needs to become self-reliant. Three good performances by the principals help the film overcome the structural limitations placed on it as an adaptation from a play. Although the emotional conflicts are a bit too neatly settled at the story's conclusion, Albert, Hawn, and Heckart make it all seem believable. Heckart, a superb actress, won an Academy Award for her supporting role in the film, which also received nominations for Best Cinematography and Best Sound. leave a comment
