This is a terrific movie
I rarely like movies about the South because we’re portrayed as stupid hillbillies, brainless boobs. But this movie treats us with respect, there is a loving tenderness to it’s portrayal. I watched this movie because of Kevin Costner and loved it because of Elijah Wood’s performance. There were a lot of great performances by both the children and the adults. I read the comments about preaching and sentimentality, well we tend to be a bit sentimental in the South and I make no apologies for that. This movie deserves to be seen by a wider audience. I like a big blockbuster as well as the next person but I love these smaller, character driven films. They stick in my mind and I mull them around for a while. I’ve watched this one many times and I still love it. The casting was perfect, Elijah was superb. The actress that played Elvadean stole every scene she was in. I realize some may think the Lipnicki’s were hillbillies, but they were limited by their upbringing and would have behaved that way no matter where they lived. Whenever I spot Reinor Scheine in a movie I think about his portrayal of the Lipnicki’s daddy. Unfortunately, I know someone distressingly like him. This movie is well worth watching.
