Having seen Roz in a vision as the love of his life, Fletcher is drawn to L.A., where Roz--targeting Fletcher as her latest mark in an art-dealer scam--is as cynically damaged as Fletcher is spiritually grounded. He's the cure for what ails her, and their awkward return to San Antonio (a lovely, sunlit location) reveals that Roz is initially too cold to fall for Fletcher's charms. As she comes to life--a process that Going expresses with convincing subtlety--Still Breathing achieves a quality of quiet warmth and grace. An overlooked gem with abundant charm and sex appeal, the movie's also blessed by an easygoing supporting cast including Ann Magnuson, Angus MacFadyen, and Hollywood veteran Celeste Holm as Fletcher's equally good-natured grandmother. --Jeff Shannon

Customer Reviews of Still Breathing
Still Breathing is a Breath of Fresh Air in Romance Films First time director James F. Robinson gives us a rare treat - a beautiful romance that both men and women can enjoy. I remember going to see this film when it was in theaters. I was totally surprised by the soundtrack, script and characters. The director showed off San Antonio and LA in their best colors, and created a soundtrack that is a real keeper. The story is about a woman con artist (Joanna Goings) who has given up on love and a performance artist (Brendan Fraser) who only believes in unconditional love. They collide in their nightly dreams (before they even meet) and in their waking hours. Both characters and their friends are true to form. Brendan Fraser's family and friends are really out there artistically, and Joanna Goings associates are out and out thieves. The transformation Joanna goes through to finally accept unconditional love and ultimately accept herself in a relationship with Brendan Fraser is truly heartwarming. This is a movie to be savored on a rainy day when you are curled up on the couch alone or with your honey. Be forewarned. Once you get the movie, you will want the original movie soundtrack. The heady slow mix of jazz and sweet classical music is downright intoxicating.
Filmed in San Antonio
It's always a surprise to find a movie actually filmed in Texas.
As a Texan I'm proud of this film because it suggests that not everyone in the state is a loudmouth blowhard. It also shows
that you don't find mountains in the background in most parts of
Texas.
This is certainly an atypical Brendan Frasier film, but it shows his acting ability. He seems to be a cross between Jimmy Stewart and Hugh Grant with a gentle and humerous philosophy of life, and a Don Johnson stubble. Perhaps the lifestyle is a little too laid-back to be credible but it's a kick to see the hero as a musician/street who sometimes plays in a band with his grandmother on tuba.
It is a sweet, good-hearted film, which accentuates the crass personality that is the starting place for our heroine, Goins.
I ran across this film on cable and my wife loved it so much that I had to buy both the soundtrack and the DVD. It remains my own personal favorite Brendan Frasier film, and I'm not particularly a fan of "love stories". However, the enjoyment of picking out locations in San Antonio, the unique music, and the endearing performances break down my reserves about the genre.
Chick Flick for Guys
I don't know why I love this film - but I do. Actually, I do know why... Joanna Going. To the point that I am able to overcome my distaste for the performance of Brendan Fraser. He is annoying, smarmy and soppy, but Joanna Going is so enchanting that Fraser's performance is immaterial. Buy the film to see her - period!
