Profile of Gloria

The mood of Gloria is emotional, touching, and tense. The plot centers around a child in danger, being on the run, and a woman in danger. It is a drama, crime, and thriller movie. Stylistically, Gloria involves twists and turns. In approach, it is serious and realistic. It takes place, at least partly, in an urban environment. Gloria is set in New York. It happens in the 1990s. It is a remake. Note that Gloria includes profanity and violent content.

Summary of Gloria

Sidney Lumet directs Sharon Stone in this lively character study of a woman on her own with the odds stacked against her. Stone plays Gloria, a loud-mouthed gangster's moll who is working on starting a new life when a mob hit leaves her suddenly responsible for an orphaned six-year-old. This dramatic, emotionally heavy film is a remake of an earlier version starring Gina Rowlands (1980), and uses the same screenplay by John Cassavetes.

Critics Reviews

The Globe and Mail (Toronto)
If the external threat in the plot were a little more credible, this would be an annoying distraction. But in the context of the rest of Gloria, it's a safe strategy: When not watching Sharon Stone act, audiences can fall back on just watching...
The New York Times
A smoother, funnier, more suspenseful and more endearing version of the 1980 John Cassavetes film of the same title.
