Alice (1990)
Oscar- and Golden Globe-nominated Woody Allen comedy with Mia Farrow as a spoiled housewife re-evaluating her life after visiting a Chinatown healer. Co-stars William Hurt.
Alice Tate (Farrow), mother of two, with a marriage of 16 years, finds herself falling for the handsome sax player, Joe (Joe Mantegna). Stricken with a backache, she consults Dr. Yang (Keye Luke), an oriental herbalist who realises that her problems are not related to her back, but in her mind and heart. Dr. Yang's magical herbs give Alice wondrous powers, taking her out of well-established rut.

The Washington Post
Farrow peers through the looking glass sparkly in lovely Alice, a downright adorable collaboration with the mellowed father-of-her-child.

Rolling Stone
Alice may be a minor work in the Allen canon, but when its grace notes manage to be heard above the whimsy, they ring true.
