Martin Scorcese directs Ellen Burstyn in an Academy Award-winning performance. At 32, Alice Hyatt (Burstyn) watches her dreams slipping away. Instead of a career as a singer, she has an abusive husband, an ill-mannered 12-year-old son, and a life in small-town Oklahoma. But when her husband dies in a traffic accident, Alice heads west to pursue her dreams, working as a lounge singer along the way. Life, however, never seems to go according to plan, and Alice must again face a choice between love and the career that seems as elusive as ever. Became the basis for the long-running series Alice.

Reviews

Crooked Marquee

Sean Burns

A more volatile movie than you’d expect from a story like this, with scenes suddenly exploding into laughter or tears as befitting an exhausted mom’s mood swings.

The cumulative effect of Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore is one of openness and warmth.

Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore stands as a remarkable chapter in the Scorsese canon.

It works even though it shouldn't, because of Scorsese's innate vitality and the breakneck momentum he can generate. "Alice" doesn't match the fury of Mean Streets, but its very superficiality allows it to be lively and likable.

Ellen Burstyn as Alice Hyatt (wife, widow, mother, former singer) is great in a movie that embraces the clichés of most women's lives.
