    I thought her performance was not cringeworthy at all. The whole movie was filled with heightened performances - not to mention De Niro, Nolte, and Lewis. Her performance was powerful.

      I would rather say 'exaggerated' and 'overdone', rather than 'heightened' performances in this awful excuse for a thriller. As far as I am concerned, Juliette Lewis is the only one who gave a decent performance in this mess of a movie. This is quite a revelation, considering she was the least experienced of the actors.

        pretty high score for an "awful excuse for a thriller" You seem to be in a minority.

          I love Jessica Lange in this film, so ridiculously over-the-top!
          That screech of 'OH NO!!!' when Sam get's dragged into the boat. Amazing.

                I didn't think she was terrible in the film or anything, but she definitely overacted in some scenes.

                  I thought she was decent. She was treated, basically as a s 'Scream queen' anyways. At least her character had a bunch of opposing emotions and plots and stuff to deal with, rather than just be a victim.

                    Frankly, with exceptions of her roles in Tootsie and Grey Gardens, Ive never been fond of Lange as an actress.

                      I didn't feel she was bad. But, then again, I usually think anyone is good unless they are so terrible that I can't help but notice, such as the director's daughter in The Godfather Part III. I still liked that movie anyway, though, and her badness gave me some good laughs.

                        Lange was excellent in this.

                                  The scene when Nolte grabs the gun from the dead guy then goes out his front door and just starts randomly shooting. What a ridiculous mess! Lange looks like an idiot trying to pull him back inside. Not her best work by far.

                                      I think you mean 'weak link', not 'wink link'. Anyway, I thought she gave the best performance in the film.
