Profile of The Mirror Has Two Faces
The Mirror Has Two Faces can be described as bittersweet, sentimental, and touching. The plot revolves around looking for love, self discovery, and a love triangle. The main genres are drama, comedy, and romance. In approach, The Mirror Has Two Faces is realistic. The storytelling is slow paced. It is set, at least in part, at a university. The Mirror Has Two Faces takes place in the 1990s. It is a remake. It is well suited for a girls' night and a date night.
Summary of The Mirror Has Two Faces
Based on Andre Cayatte's 1958 film LE MIROIR A DEUX FACES, THE MIRROR HAS TWO FACES finds Barbra Streisand directing her third motion picture, casting herself in the lead as Rose Morgan and Jeff Bridges as Professor Gregory Larkin, her foil. Morgan and Larkin, two cerebral Columbia professors, commit to a perfectly sensible but passionless paper marriage based on their intellectual common ground. The earth moves, however, when Rose redesigns her look in order to invoke the hots in her spouse and bolster her sagging self-esteem. This feel-good romance finds Streisand a little older but still the eager ingenue, ready to blush at her suitor's chivalrous blunders or bristle at her crabby mother (Lauren Bacall). Like SABRINA, a film almost 40 years older, MIRROR focuses on a woman's transformation from dusty house-mouse to glamorous cosmopolitan citizen, which only serves to confuse the man instead of creating respect or admiration. Jeff Bridges's charming performance is endearing, and Streisand and Bryan Adams's love ballad, "I Finally Found Someone," sets the mood for a very romantic film.
