out of step with todays Hollywood...
20 May 2007
At many levels Lillie's of the Field may find itself out of step with todays Hollywood, but certainly not with the viewing public. Built not on overly dramatic scenes, and instead disciplined in dialog and character development, I can assure you that this film will hold the viewers interest. The religious aspects of the film are well balanced and not meant to preach to the audience head on. Instead, it demonstrates the good works that religious faith encourages, and how it unites people together by putting themselves behind a higher power.

Homers dedication is mostly driven by ambition that is fueled by a need for self accomplishment. However, although Portier's character is in search of a paying job, he cannot steer himself away from the task at building something dwarfed in worldliness by a common strip mall, but on par with a modern skyscraper in its significance.
