Over the years, Goldberg and
Pfeiffer develop a close friendship
in The Deep End of the Ocean.
The Deep End of
the Ocean
Starring Michelle Pfeiffer
Directed by
Ulu Grosbard
Playing at Hollywood 1 6
Somehow, Pfeiffer thought a
number-one bestselling novel
about a lost-and-found son
could make for a great film, as
well as display her dramatic role
playing. She was definitely
wrong about something.
Beth Cappadora (Pfeiffer) is a
traditional mother of three with
the common stresses of a house
wife. While at a class reunion
where she decided to drag her
children one of her sons, Ben,
disappears.
From this point on, the movie
becomes a Saturday afternoon
Television mini-drama.
Losing a child can probably
be considered one of the worst
things a parent can do, but un
less you are a parent it is hard to
understand the turmoil and sui
cidal behavior displayed by Cap
padora.
Children constantly show up
missing, and unfortunately
many are not found. The
evening news could feed the ap
petite of anyone who cares that
much to see this sort of drama.
