Moonlight & Valentino

Moonlight and Valentino, directed by David Anspaugh (Rudy) from a screenplay by Ellen Simon (based on her play), is a romantic drama featuring a cast that pays homage to the great women's pictures of a bygone era. Elizabeth Perkins (Big) stars as Rebecca Trager Lott, a woman coping with the recent death of her husband. Grieving and unable to move forward, Rebecca's life is further complicated by her closest friends Sylvie (Whoopi Goldberg, The Color Purple), Alberta (Kathleen Turner, Body Heat) and sister Lucy (Gwyneth Paltrow, Seven), whose sympathetic best intentions are overshadowed by their own personal issues. When least expected, a romantic distraction arrives in the form of a house painter (Jon Bon Jovi, No Looking Back).
