Just after a bad breakup, Charlie MacKenzie (Mike Myers) falls for lovely butcher Harriet Michaels (Nancy Travis) and introduces her to his parents. But, as voracious consumers of sensational tabloids, his parents soon come to suspect that Harriet is actually a notorious serial killer -- "Mrs. X" -- wanted in connection with a string of bizarre honeymoon killings. Thinking his parents foolish, Charlie proposes to Harriet. But while on his honeymoon with her, he begins to fear they were right.

Serial swindler Bernie Laplante (Dustin Hoffman) makes the first selfless gesture of his life when he helps save injured passengers from a roadside plane crash and then vanishes into the night. Hoping to find the hero who pulled her out of the wreck, reporter Gale Gayley (Geena Davis) announces a $1 million prize for stepping forward.

Finding Graceland
En route to Memphis, Tenn., on a solemn solo road trip, widower Byron Gruman (Johnathon Schaech) picks up a disarming hitchhiker who claims to be the late, great Elvis Presley (Harvey Keitel). As Gruman opens up about the loss of his wife, Beatrice (Gretchen Mol), in a tragic car accident, his bizarre passenger becomes a surprisingly powerful source of wisdom and comfort. The duo even picks up a Marylin Monroe impersonator, Ashley (Bridget Fonda), during the surreal pilgrimage to Graceland.
Places in the Heart
In 1935 rural Texas, recently widowed Edna Spaulding (Sally Field) struggles to survive with two small children, a farm to run and very little money in the bank -- not to mention a deadly tornado and the unwelcome presence of the Ku Klux Klan. Edna is aided by her beautician sister, Margaret (Lindsay Crouse) ; a blind boarder, Mr. Will (John Malkovich) ; and a would-be thief, Moze (Danny Glover), who decides to stick around to teach Edna how to plant and harvest cotton.

But this upsets the Judge (Robert Prosky), their owner, who wants Hobbs to lose games, not win.
