Full Plot Details

Woody Allen plays Tex, a kosher butcher. Sharon Stone plays his unfaithful wife Candy. Tex catches Candy in the act and in a fit of rage he kills her. To conceal his crime he cuts up her body and buries it in the desert in New Mexico. However, when her hand surfaces, a blind woman trips over it and it restores her sight. The hand is then considered to be the "hand of the Virgin." Despite the church's fallen priest objecting, the ambitious mayor of the town creates an international three-ring circus of miracle-seekers, TV crews, and born-again local prostitutes all interested in the hand. All of this goes on while Tex is desperately trying to recover the hand before the sheriff finds it and uses it as evidence against him.

User Review - 10/10 by Patricia BThis film was so under-publicised that most people don't even believe there is this Arau comedy with Woody Allen and Sharon Stone and this whole fantastic cast. It's not meant to be deep. It is meant to be deeply silly, and the result is great. Not everyone gets all the jokes, and, granted, it's not for everyone's sense of humour, but it's horribly offensive and still manages to be hilarious.
User Review - 10/10 by Mantvydas Jyeah! totally funny! :) ir nors W.Alleno ir nÄ?ra filmo autorių sÄ?raÅ¡e, bet jauÄ?iasi, kad jis ten ne tik vaidino :)
User Review - 10/10 by Uriel A. VThis film is a work of genius! Complex and cheeky, this is what "a priest and a rabbi go into a bar" joke should be. I've read some users consider it too weird, but that's just how magical realism is. Magical realism is very common in Latin America, and it combines reality with "fantasy." Honestly, I'm almost scared to call "Picking Up The Pieces" a fantasy, since many Latinos think miracles are real, and the situations seen in the movie are exaggerations of what we see in Latino news all the time. There's always a town trying to canonize someone, or claiming they saw the Virgin at the bottom of a well. The addition of the Jewish sense of humor with Woody Allen and David Schwimmer made it into an absolute classic in my opinion. This film combines all the things I love, and reminds me of how good comedies used to be before the "Frat Pack" took over.

User Review - 8/10 by jutamanee joddly hilarious. found myself enjoying this more then expected. I guess I am a sucker for the "magical realism" though too..haha
User Review - 6/10 by Dave MWith the cast this has and the premis it SHOULD be a fantastic movie, but the script isn't up to it. There's a good movie hidden in here. I only paid 98p for the DVD though so can't really complain
User Review - 6/10 by Leslie WLots of famous people in this yet nobody has ever heard of it, not the greatest film ive ever watched but it was okay. IMDB gave it 4/10 so judge for yourself :)
User Review - 6/10 by Batakoja Mnice try...there are moments where it promises, but.... having woody is not enough to make a great comedy:)
User Review - 6/10 by Eric BThe biggest mystery about "PIcking Up the Pieces" is why such a bewildering array of well-known actors signed up for this silly, sacrilegious farce. The cast is like the head table at a celebrity roast: Woody Allen, Sharon Stone, Kiefer Sutherland, David Schwimmer, Fran Drescher, Elliott Gould, Eddie Griffin, Cheech Marin, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Andy Dick and Lou Diamond Phillips are all hamming it up and vying for screen time, but their talents are mostly wasted on broad characterizations and cheap jokes. Sutherland and his ever-nimble toothpick have a ball and come off quite well, but other thankless roles just suggest the acting community really, really loved "Like Water for Chocolate" (also directed by Alfonso Arau). The main allure of "Picking Up the Pieces" is seeing Woody Allen in a rare appearance as a hired actor, though he's playing a nebbish part which he might as well have written himself. Allen portrays a Texas butcher who kills and dismembers his floozy wife (Stone), then trucks across the border to secretly bury her in the titular "pieces." He loses her hand in transport, but a blind woman (literally) stumbles on it and magically regains her sight. This leads to her tiny village enshrining the hand (extended middle finger and all), while an ethically shaky priest (Schwimmer) struggles with his conscience. More and more healing miracles occur, and the town becomes a cash-cow tourist trap. Meanwhile, Allen hears about the lost hand's notoriety and plots to steal back the evidence. The resulting complications are predictable (the sight gags involving enlarged breasts and penises are especially crass), but the film is plenty of fun anyway. Book it along with Alex Cox's "Straight to Hell" for a midnight double feature.
