 The Banger Sisters (2002) Movie Review
Goldie Hawn gives perhaps the best performance in a thirty-plus year acting career in The Banger Sisters, and that includes her early Oscar-winning role in The Fortune Cookie.
In the character of Suzette, a past-50 former groupie who is still desperately holding on to her old life and her old sexuality even as she is finally learning that she is becoming obsolete, Hawn taps in on a depth of emotion and pain that makes it obvious this role has touched her deeply.
But the obvious love and craft that Hawn and Sarandon (and the rest of a uniformly excellent cast) bring to the film make me willing to overlook The Banger Sisters' short-comings and enjoy it as what it is, a funny little slice of life with some truly excellent acting.
