As a clairvoyant,
Demi Moore
awaits signs from beyond that her true love, whomever he may be, is waiting for her, somewhere. When New York butcher
George Dzundza
shows up on the tiny North Carolina island where Demi lives, she is convinced that he is the man predestined to be her husband. After the wedding, Demi moves into George's blue-collar neighborhood, where she successfully commisserates with such eccentrics as withdrawn teenager
Max Perlich
, frustrated singer
Mary Steenburgen
, unlucky-in-love actress
Margaret Colin
, over-analytical psychiatrist
Jeff Daniels
, and lesbian
Frances McDormand
. As Demi helpfully tries to chart the destinies of her new friends, she fails to notice that Dzundza is falling in love with Steenburgen. Though there are many traumatic detours along the way, Demi's psychic talents have very positive effects on at least one of the characters. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
