Entertainment Reviews:
Joan Micklin Silver, who also directed Hester Street, has fashioned a film so close to home that it will be hard for any journalist to be disassociated from it.

...Appealing, low-key, counter-culture....[The performances] are uniformly first-rate...
New York Times
Rating: B- --
The film serves more as a showcase for its talented performers (John Heard, Jeff Goldblum, Lindsay Crouse) than as critical view of the underground press or a compelling study of disenchantment among 1960s radicals.

Films about intrepid reporters are myriad ... but did anyone ever write a screenplay about Wayne Barrett and Robert Christgau's pioneering years at The Village Voice?

Rating: 3/4 --
As alternative newsweeklies continue to disappear at an alarming rate, soon to become as extinct as dinosaurs, Between the Lines takes on an even greater nostalgic vibe than ever before.

Rating: 8/10 --
There's still sweet tang, a rising waft of authenticity. The fictional Main Line is losing its counterculture cred-the 1960s had been over for a while-but life, and loving, goes on. Like Jeff Goldblum.

For most of its talky running time, Between the Lines is a hangout film in which too few of the characters are good company.

Product Description:
BETWEEN THE LINES evokes nostalgia as a rather Chekhovian portrait of a group of charmingly naive idealists on the eve of the destruction of their own particular "cherry orchard." Starring John Heard as Harry Lucas, ace reporter of an underground paper loosely based on the Boston Phoenix during the early 1970s, the film offers an amusingly low-key take on the relationships and emotional travails of the paper's youthful staff. Harry is beginning to lose his belief in his work and is trying to resume his on-again, off-again relationship with photographer Abbie (Lindsay Crouse). Max Arloft (Jeff Goldblum) is panhandling his colleagues rather than working, and Steven Entwhistle (Bruno Kirby) is eagerly trying to break into journalism. BETWEEN THE LINES is an enjoyable film, enhanced by an excellent cast, including Marilu Henner, Stephen Collins, Jill Eikenberry, and Lane Smith--all near the beginning of their careers.
