How to Make an American Quilt | 1995 | PG-13 | - 3.1.2

Winona Ryder talks love and romance with older women in her grandma's quilting bee.

SEX/NUDITY 3 - Some passionate kisses. A woman is shown in her underwear. A man slips the bra strap off a woman's shoulder and they kiss (we don't see any nudity). A woman poses nude for her husband and we see her buttocks and brief, quick glimpses of her breasts as her husband climbs on top of her and begins kissing her. A woman is shown naked in a bathtub and we briefly see her breasts. Also bare-chested men. A man and woman begin kissing and he caresses the sides of her breasts (we see no nudity). Some talk about sex.

VIOLENCE/GORE 1 - Some yelling, a couple of slaps, a violent windstorm.

LANGUAGE 2 - Some mild obscenities, some scatological references.

DISCUSSION TOPICS - Love, marriage and infidelity, sacrifice, motherhood, learning from your elders.

MESSAGE - You can learn a great deal from your older relatives. Learn from the mistakes of others. Every marriage is different.

CAVEATS

Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.

We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.

Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
