Reviews for Playing By Heart
A very slight and inoffensive movie. It's a lot like L.A. itself, all surface, soothing and warm.
The dozen or so lead characters of Playing By Heart fear silence the way Biblical people feared locusts.
An underrated, dreamy drama about love, lust and infidelity amongst inter-connected Los Angeleans. Jolie rises to the challenge.
A heavily mixed bag; high points come with Jon Stewart's sweet courtship of Gillian Anderson and a brilliant turn from a young unknown named Angelina Jolie.
