Dr. Alex Tremor (Jeff Daniels), the local psychiatrist, isn't convinced of Marina's so-called powers. But his textbooks can't explain the joy she spreads, or the growing attraction he feels toward her.Costarring Mary Steenburgen, The Butcher's Wife is "a charming tale of romantic love and magical adventure" (David Sheehan, KNBC-TV Los Angeles).
