After
Griffin Dunne's wife
Brooke Adams is injured in a car crash, Dunne begins an affair with Adams' nurse
Karen Young. You think that takes gall? Dunne also becomes best friends with Young's boyfriend Marty Watt. Believe it or not,
Griffin Dunne is the most likeable character in the movie. After testing poorly at 110 minutes, Almost You was whittled down to 96 minutes. Those who have trouble wading through this prime example of mid-1980s self-indulgence are advised to keep an eye out for the brilliant monologist
Spalding Gray in a supporting role. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
