Sophie's choice

Meryl Streep's performance and Sophie's personal story part of the film is incredibly good. It is incredibly emotionally effective maybe even too much with the "choice" scene, and is simply an effective storyline of an interesting character. Peter MacNicol is quite uninteresting though as is his storyline about the southern writer. Kevin Kline also hurts the main "present" storyline with his very overacted performance.
