Moonlight and Valentino (1995) - Movie Synopsis & Plot

When beautiful, young Rebecca Lott (Elizabeth Perkins) is unexpectadly widowed, she is left shell-shocked, confused and lonely -- until her best friend Sylvie (Whoopie Goldberg), younger sister Lucy (Gwyneth Paltrow) and ex-stepmother Alberta (Kathleen Turner) all arrive to provide support. When, for Rebecca's birthday, Alberta hires a house painter (Jon Bon Jovi) to "spruce up her siding", the four women -- the widow, the virgin, the divorcee and the wife -- bound together by a single tragic event -- are liberated by a single, sexy house painter who inspires unforeseen passion within themselves and unexpected compassion for each other. And they discover that letting go of something is sometimes a whole lot better than holding on to nothing at all. blog comments powered by Disqus
