A bit boring
Added 1/30/2010
The story line of Beulah Land is very predictable, and I found it boring. Did not watch the whole thing; lost interest. It does feature some great stars who performed well, however.

Beulah Land
Added 12/12/2009
I really liked this movie; started out alittle slow; but picked up; lives of the people who lived there; etc; were not many civil war battle scenes; but it did show the yankees coming down south; looting; raping; pillaging; etc. As a civil war reenactor; I noticed the yankee cavalry uniforms were wrong. Overall a good movie.

Beautiful setting, gorgeous costumes, beautiful people - a delight
Added 11/1/2009
This lavish movie that spans from the antebellum south in 1827 Georgia to 1872 after the Civil
War takes us through a soap-opera like miniseries, with social issues, war, love, death, and beautiful scenery with beatiful clothes and beautiful people. Audiences will love Sarah, the main character, and emphasize with her problems and triumphs as she becomes new mistress of Bealah Land, the plantation that sees lavish pre-war parties with dancing and fire as the Yankees burn it. Surviving the fire is a beautiful painting of Sarah done before the war by a Yankee painter, with whom she has an illicit affair. Her husband has an out of wedlock affair with Sarah's sister and fathers a baby girl who Sarah brings up as her own. The saga continues as trouble erupts at Beaulah Land when Leon, Sarah's husband, shoots the overseer and himself. The Civil War comes, and Sarah's niece's husband goes off to war. The story traces Sarah's trials and tribulations as she is widowed. But when the Yankee portrait painter comes back after the war, she must decide whether or not to take him in. I won't ruin this delicious story for you, but I'll just tell you that this story has a happy ending.

Southern Plantation Life, Before, During and After the Civil War
Added 6/24/2009
Enjoyed the movie. Good and entertainin about the civil war before and after and the futility of slavery and its aftermath as well as suffering of people post civil war. Particularly interesting were how people in the South viewed themselves, the glory of plantation life and slaves contributions in making it what it was. Also showed that although some slaves were freed, they really never were.
