Things You Can Tell Just by Looking at Her (2000)

Several female characters very tenuously connected, their common problem being loneliness: an abortionist, a palm reader, her terminally ill lover, a police detective, her blind sister, a divorced mother who takes an interest in her dwarf neighbor, a bank manager who gets pregnant of her married lover, her homeless acquaintance, and the corpse of a probable suicide.

Engaging drama with excellent performances, and a tendency toward romanticism (in its contemporary popular sense).
