‘Angie’
- Share via
This 1994 release is an unapologetic star vehicle and its every moment is crafted to announce Geena Davis’ arrival at the top. As a feisty Italian-American resident of Brooklyn whose unexpected pregnancy brings on the usual journey of self-discovery, Davis, pictured, gets to do a lot--and does it well. As a vehicle to display Davis’ talent, “Angie” can’t be faulted, and neither can the actress’ pumped-up performance as a woman in the process of harnessing her emotional strength. When the film, however, is considered apart from the lead’s strength, the reviews are much more mixed (TMC Tuesday at 12:25 and 9 p.m.).
