Amazon.com essential video
Garry Marshall's 1988 drama about a 30-year friendship between two women, one wealthy (Barbara Hershey) and the other (Bette Midler) seeking her fortune in show business, is well written (based on the novel by Iris Rainer Dart) and nicely textured in its contrast between the characters' separate destinies. When Hershey becomes ill with cancer, the film takes a predictably sentimental course, yet Marshall brings out the best in both actresses and catches some very fine drama. The film is a little too long, perhaps, but overall it is a fine experience. --Tom Keogh
Product Description
This is the story of a friendship that gets off to a funny start. And stays that way for thirty years. C.C. Bloom and Hillary Whitney are as opposite as two people can be. Oddly enough, they become best friends.

 Best Friends June 5, 2009
Teresa King (Tampa, FL)
"Beaches" is a movie women will especially like who understand how special that "best friend" is.

I've had this on video tape since it first came out and now I had to get the DVD because of the music. It sounds so much better than the video tape.
Beaches...the ultimate chic flick and CD March 21, 2009
Indy-girl (Birmingham, AL)
I've owned the movie "Beaches" and its subsequent tape and CD... "The Wind Beneath My Wings" is my favorite track from the CD and I always play it aloud and with complete abandonment!! I dedicate it to my very best friend Kathy, who has been there through thick and thin and has always been the wind beneath my wings! She and her hubby have,and always will be, my best friends! To everyone out there... buy this CD. It is well worth the emotional release and well- being that comes from listening to every word that is sung!
Wonderful film February 21, 2009
