About The Butcher's Wife
A clairvoyant woman thinks that she's met her future husband because she's seen him in a dream. They marry and he takes her back to his butcher shop in New York city, where her powers tend to influence everyone she meets while working in the shop. Through her advice, she helps others and eventually finds the true man of her dreams.
Directed by Terry Hughes, The Butcher's Wife leans on a strong ensemble — Demi Moore, Jeff Daniels, George Dzundza — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about fantasy titles of 1991.
