You start to feel sad for the daughters! Some people criticize Boothe as being too dastardly of a villain. Unfortunately, her character comes across as unlikable and even scary. For this reason many hail the first two acts of the film, and Tommy Lee as well. I don't follow film awards, but Jessica won an Oscar for her performance as the hysterical wife and she deserved it. When the father goes to Nevada to work with bomb testing the commander of the base (Powers Boothe) has his eyes on the sexpot wife. The two daughters lament their mother's disorder, but the family's strong nevertheless. The wife (Jessica Lange) is erratic & bipolar and behaves like a loony Marilyn Monroe while the husband (Tommy Lee Jones) is unshakably faithful. The story involves a military family in the early 60s who move to an Alabama base. Shot in the Fall/Spring of 1989-90, "Blue Sky" wasn't actually released until 1994.
