Once Around

(1991)Directed by Lasse Hallström115 min · RComedy, Drama, Romance
“The Bellas were one big happy family. Then Renata met Sam...”

Renata Bella (Holly Hunter) sits through a real estate seminar and ends up falling for the man at the front of the room, Sam Sharpe (Richard Dreyfuss), a charismatic and much older salesman. Lasse Hallström follows them into a fast, passionate romance that Renata's close-knit family watches with growing alarm, her father Joe (Danny Aiello) most of all.
