5.0 out of 5 stars A Gem, 10 Jan 2005
By Lorraine (London, UK England) - See all my reviews
This is one of my favorite films of all time, and I only regret that it is not available in Region 2 encoding. It is a slow, lovely film about a small New York town miles from anywhere exciting. The people in the town have relationships that don't go so far as scandal (most of the time) but are complex and heart-breaking nonetheless. Small-town New York is the perfect setting for the interwoven dreams, old grudges, and reunions they share. This a movie for people who find ordinary life sad, rhythmic, and beautiful. The entire cast gives remarkable performances. Have patience. This is a gem.

5.0 out of 5 stars Utter Delight, 1 Mar 2007
By Mark Pearce "''Chinatown''" (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
The bittersweet mainstream American movie of the 1990's.Paul Newman in possibly his greatest performance plays Donald "Sully" Sullivan a man whose life has been one long history of failure- divorced,estranged from his only son, an odd job man with a dodgy knee whose only friends are a selection of oddballs who all live in the depressing town of Bath in upstate New York.
However in the hands of director Robert Benton with a script from Richard Russo(who adapted his novel of the same name)this is more upbeat than down with a stellar cast that includes an excellent Bruce Willis as Newman's archrival in business and Melanie Griffth who has a moment with Newman that makes the film worthwhile almost on it's own.
From the ashes of broken relationships and directionless lives comes a film of beauty,quiet grace and exquisite charm.Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars BIG MOVIE about a small town, 2 Feb 2007
By Peanut Butter (Leamington Spa, England) - See all my reviews
Never has a film been so critically applauded (it was nominated for several Oscars, including Best Actor Paul Newman), so criminally neglected or so in need of Region 2 release!

Having read Richard Russo's giant of a novel, I rushed to see this film when it opened in the cinema and was not disappointed. This gentle tale of small town America is a joy to behold. The quiet simplicity of its characterisation rings true on every level, the beautifully bleak landscape of the town providing the perfect backdrop for the hopes and fears, joys and sorrows of its citizens. Paul Newman is perfect as Sully, the part-time worker, part-time father central to the story. The supporting cast are no less impressive, particularly Jessica Tandy, but even Bruce Willis shines in a straight, non-action role!

I would snap up the DVD today if it were only available in Region 2 PAL format! Paramount, I hope you're reading and taking note!

Don't want to spend to many words on this one. You just have to see it and you will love it. That is if you want to see one of the best feel-good-movies ever made. Read more
