You think that takes gall? Dunne also becomes best friends with Young's boyfriend Marty Watt. Believe it or not, Griffin Dunne is the most likeable character in the movie. After testing poorly at 110 minutes, Almost You was whittled down to 96 minutes. Those who have trouble wading through this prime example of mid-1980s self-indulgence are advised to keep an eye out for the brilliant monologist Spalding Gray in a supporting role. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Emanuel Levy, EmanuelLevy.Com
This well acted indie comedy belongs to a cycle of 1980s films about yuppies, several of which star Griffin Dunne.

Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat, Spirituality and Practice
A slight but quite revealing glimpse of a Yuppie couple's marital crisis.
