Synopsis

A waitress in a White Palace fast-food restaurant meets a young, recently widowed, Jewish advertising executive at a bar.

Critics' reviews

• " If White Palace is no 'Last Tango in Paris,' it's at least a sizzling, fat-free 'Last Hamburger in St. Louis.'"
• "'White Palace' is formula stuff, but it succeeds on the strength of performances, a clever script and thoughtful direction by Luis Mandoki."
