I expected nothing from this, given the dvd's cheap cover. It turned out to be a great performance by Lange and Jones, with her portraying a bipolar Army wife in the early 60s. The kids are great actors, too. Smart script. Nice pacing. Not too long. You can't go wrong.

Average movie. I am Tommy Lee Jones fan and I had not seen this one.

The a-bomb that Hank Marshall (Jones) has to inspect or his marriage to tempestuous Carly (Lange). Carly ran away from her home in Virginia because she 'wanted paradise.' When Carly's topless sunbathing gets the Marshalls busted from Hawaii to Alabama, their marriage goes on the rocks.
Carly's badly unstable. We'd call her bipolar today. Her mood swings go from effervescent highs to devastating lows that frighten the two Marshall kids.
Hank describes Carly like 'water.' Sometimes, she's flowing and sometimes she's like ice. The kids describe them 'he's blind and she's crazy.'
Matters go from bad to worse when Colonel Vincent Johnson (Boothe) gets interested in Carly and transfers Hank to Nevada bomb tests. This project "Blue Sky" is going to be an aboveground test since the Soviets have detonated a bomb aboveground and we have to stay ahead in the arms race.
You'd think it's a rotten marriage and in some ways you'd be right, but when a test goes awry and the military wants to cover it up Carly is there for Hank. Jessica Lange won an Oscar for her role in this film, but Jones deserves accolades as well for his elegant, understated role as a science-minded military man.

My favorite Jessica Lange movie. She is so...sexy in this film. I personally love high-strung females like this, they are so much fun to be around! Anyway, I love everything about this film and kinda knew this was gonna be true when the film opened with one of favorite songs by Dinah Washington & Brook Benton (You've Got What It Takes). Anyone who wants to watch a well made great movie should check this out!

Blue Sky has its basis in fact: the 1963 Nuclear Test Ban Treaty limited testing to those underground. Within this historical moment, Tommy Lee Jones plays Hank Marshall, an Army nuclear engineer, is wife Carly played flawlessly by Jessica Lange. The plot is predictable, its underlying emotion typical Hollywood melodrama. But you almost forget this as Jones and Lange breathe life into this movie.
