Our take

Working from an unfilmed screenplay written by John Cassavetes, his son Nick directs this lyrical drama about a self-destructive love affair. With an all-star cast led by Sean Penn, Robin Wright and John Travolta, She’s So Lovely is a poignant tribute to the godfather of American independent cinema.
