Critic Reviews

The movie contains its moments, charms and felicities-even its sharp stings of pleasure and pain. [20 May 1994]Full Review

Michael Wilmington

Chicago Tribune

Campbell and Edwards work wonders with the rocky, wide-open Oregon landscape, but none of their periwinkle-blue skies and sparkling shots of whooping cranes in flight can compensate for a film that aims high, means well, and ultimately fails its audience. [20 May 1994]Full Review

Edward Guthmann

San Francisco Chronicle

Unfortunately, for a number of reasons, the movie does not work, though it's difficult to sort out the "what is" from the "what was" and "what might have been."Full Review

Marjorie Baumgarten

Austin Chronicle

Pic stays on the surface, without attempting any exploration of painful depths. Result is at best amusing; at worst, uninvolving, often confusing, and sometimes a little boring.Full Review

Deborah Young

Variety

One of the many problems with Gus Van Sant's tortured, worked-over Even Cowgirls Get the Blues is that Sissy Hankshaw talks like a novel, and a dated one at that.Full Review
