Barbra Streisand's best film as a director is helped enormously by one of Nick Nolte's finest performances. Nolte plays a football coach who is estranged from his wife (Blythe Danner) and who enters into an affair with the psychiatrist (Streisand) of his suicidal sister (Melinda Dillon). Streisand is acceptable in her star turn, but behind the camera she paces the story very well and provides lots of room for Nolte to inhabit his burdened but likable character. George Carlin is a bit token as a gay New Yorker, although Jason Gould (Streisand's son) is good as a struggling teen in desperate need of a father figure. The Prince of Tides is worth watching just to see a great moment near the end where Nolte stands on a street, a bit slump-shouldered and wearing a look of sad resolve. It's great acting at its most minimal. --Tom Keogh
The most romantic drama you will ever see!!!!

This is a remarkable story of a couple who meet through one mans heartache and its one of the most touching and dramatic movies I have ever seen, Barbra streisand(my idol) gives one of the best performances of her career, nick notle is just fantastic, this should have won all its oscars and more, it just fantastic.
