Writing in Time Out New York , Andrew Johnston remarked : " Watching the films of John Cassavetes now , one is struck by how complex and human his characters are , compared with those in even the most sophisticated of today 's independent films . This effect is even more pronounced in '' She 's So Lovely , '' an unproduced Cassavetes script given the '90s treatment and filled with stars by the late director 's son . The final product features some of the year 's best performances .... " Sean Penn won the award for Best Actor at the 1997 Cannes Film Festival . Robin Wright received a nomination for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role at the 4th Screen Actors Guild Awards
