About this product
Product Information
Using the short stories of Raymond Carver as a springboard, American maverick director Robert Altman weaves a tapestry of interlocking tales set against the seedy backdrop of contemporary middle-class Los Angeles. Tracking the various stages of denial, rage, and despair in the lives of several couples--a philandering cop and his masochistic spouse (Tim Robbins and Madeline Stowe); a helicopter pilot who gets revenge on his ex by trashing her house (Peter Gallagher and Frances McDormand); a man and woman whose perfect life falls apart when they lose their son in a hit-and-run accident (Bruce Davison and Andie MacDowell); a pool cleaner who listens in mounting frustration to his wife performing phone sex each day while tending her brood of children (Chris Penn and Jennifer Jason Leigh); a wealthy couple who are haunted by an incident from the past (Matthew Modine and Julianne Moore); an aging jazz singer and her suicidal daughter (Annie Ross and Lori Singer); an alcoholic limo driver and his waitress wife (Tom Waits and Lily Tomlin)--Altman reveals their common threads of familial dysfunction and marital discord in the unforgiving glare of the Southern California sunlight. The result is a sweeping motion picture that also stands as an important sociological artefact of late 20th century Los Angeles life.Product Identifiers

ReviewsNew York Times - Big, tumultuous, very fine... Most of the performances are astonishing, Sight And Sound - SHORT CUTS is a logical triumph, certainly; a masterpiece of orchestration... Comic touches... biting irony and delight in observation, Variety - Robert Altman has made his most complex and full-bodied human comedy since NASHVILLE in SHORT CUTS

it's not just a film, it's a symphony!
I think this is definitely Robert Altman's best film... the casting is brilliant, it gives a new definition to the word 'ensemble' and even Lily Tomlin isn't too bad. my favourite part is when the two people get their photos mixed up and suspect foul play. if I could have given this six stars then I would.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
