Amazon.co.uk Review
David Schwimmer plays a drifting twentysomething who receives a telephone call out of the blue to be a pallbearer at the funeral of someone he supposedly knew in school. Trouble is, the caller has mistaken Schwimmer's character for someone else, but our hapless hero--who still lives with his mother at home--doesn't know how to say no. An encounter with the dead man's mother (Barbara Hershey) leads to a sexual relationship, while an old flame (Gwyneth Paltrow) from high school is suddenly on the horizon if only Schwimmer's loser character can quickly get his act together. The Pallbearer is the umpteenth variation on the Oedipal conflicts made famous in Mike Nichols's The Graduate, but it doesn't have the imagination, vitality, or authority to take classic themes about growing up all the way to the finish line. But in its brooding, comic way, The Pallbearer is honest about the difficulties of crossing the line into adulthood when one doesn't know how. --Tom Keogh

4.0 out of 5 stars sweet,sensitive,and superbly funny, 20 Dec 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Pallbearer [1997] (VHS Tape)
This film is so sweet you could just cry, David Schwimmer plays a character similer to Ross the one he is best known, but that fact dosen't matter concidering Ross is the best choice for this film. Gwenyth is this woman who is noticed by David at a funeral, who he has just been happened to been invited to without haveing any idea about it, a classic amusing story, with loads of laughs, loads of tears, loads of treasures!
