Madeleine Stowe is excellent as Isabel, and Bruce Greenwood, who was JFK in "Thirteen days", is every bit as good as Welles' Eugene, Joseph Cotten.

We had a great cast -- people like James Cromwell and Bruce Greenwood.

Bruce Greenwood radiates decency as Eugene, the automaker who returns to his Midwest hometown and reconnects with his old love Isabel (Madeleine Stowe)...

The new order is represented by Eugene Morgan, an inventor and automobile manufacturer, played by Bruce Greenwood. Greenwood does something interesting with the role. He plays Eugene as a pure spirit, uncomplicated and decent, an open book who chokes up when Isabel, his true love, visits his auto factory. The result is that it becomes clear - much more clear than in the Welles movie - that Eugene is the sensitive heart of Tarkington's story.

Eugene is played by a bittersweet Greenwood....Eugene is the town's onetime poor boy, who's just come home as the rich inventor of the horseless carriage. This party is his reunion with his childhood sweetheart, Isabel Amberson.

The Magnificent Ambersons is gorgeous to look at and Greenwood, Stowe and Mol look and sound perfect as the middle-aged lovers and the sparkling debutante.
Montreal Gazette 1/12/02

Both Mr. Greenwood and Ms. Mol, seem to escape the worst of the emotional flurry, with Mr. Greenwood in particular conveying an appealing gentility, even though he's only first- generation rich, having made a fortune in horseless carriages.

And that is thanks mostly to a strong supporting cast that includes Madeline Stowe (The Last of the Mohicans), James Cromwell (Babe) and Canadian Bruce Greenwood (13 Days).
