Directed by Paul Mazursky • 1982 • United States
Starring John Cassavetes, Gena Rowlands, Susan Sarandon
Paul Mazursky updates the Bard in this loose, modern-day interpretation of Shakespeare’s THE TEMPEST. After he discovers that his wife (Gena Rowlands) is having an affair, New York architect Phillip Dimitrius (John Cassavetes) decides to chuck everything and, along with his teenage daughter (Molly Ringwald, in her film debut), sets off to a remote Greek island. Joined by his new lover (Susan Sarandon), Phillip discovers a simpler, happier existence—until one day fate steps in to interrupt his idyll.
