Goodbye Lover

Patricia Arquette, Dermot Mulroney, Ellen DeGeneres, Mary-Louise Parker, Don Johnson.
Regency Enterprises, 1998.

Another tale of an intricate web of lies and deceit. Murder and insurance money scams and shifting loyalties. Interestingly done, especially the Arquette performance, which, frankly, has some extremely erotic scenes with absolutely no nudity, thus making them quite a bit more than just . . . randy (for lack of a better word).

Other than that, the best moments in the movie are Ellen D as the hard-bitten detective and her scathing repartee with her uptight ulta-religious-conservative partner. That dialogue actually makes the movie.

Worth a see.
