Overwiew :With hard times in the family and hard knocks on the job, it's their hard rock band at night that keeps Joe (Michael J. Fox) and his sister, Patti (played by real-life rock star Joan Jett), alive. In LIGHT OF DAY, Joe and Patti are Ohio siblings who are part of a local rock band, the Barbusters. At home they are part of a dysfunctional family, the Rasnicks. Particularly troubled is Patti's antagonistic relationship with her Bible-toting mother, Jeanette (Gena Rowlands in a remarkable performance), who is angered and ashamed that Patti is an unwed single mother who refuses to reveal the identity of her son's father. When their mother falls ill, Patti and Joe's lives are put into a tailspin, and they must confront the conflicts that will prevent them from living their lives and their dreams. Rowlands shines in her portrayal of the complex, stricken, repressed Jeanette in this family-and-showbiz drama.

Schrader remains one of the few filmmakers from the American New Wave of the early '70s who continue to work in his characteristic vein -- always serious, always idiosyncratic, always identifiably Schrader. But somewhere in the process he seems to have gotten lost. You sense him groping for, well, the light of day. more...
