Good acting... but something was missing
3 July 2000
With an amazing cast this movie couldn't go wrong. Good acting, actually, great acting, and that's what keep me glued to the set, but for me, something was missing. I didn't connect with the story, and I know that's what brought these great actors together. I'm sorry, but I think this going against the grain thing is wearing thin. Why didn't they just leave town and sell the medicine on their own? I guess I'm too ignorant to understand the symbolism of the tree fort. If I had been a towns-person in this film I wouldn't be on the side of crabby sister Sissy, trying to chase them out of the tree, but I would be someone sitting at home saying, "why in the hell are they up there?" I gave it a 6.
