Excellent Chick Flick--with cool fight scenes
Added 3/2/2009

I love this show. Kelly McGillis is just at her best. It has both the lovey-dovey stuff and the excitement and blood-shed, so it should be OK for both sexes. If you like to cry at movies, there's some of that. There's a definite good vs evil theme, with a nice juicy gray area. And of course a happy ending for everyone.

Heart rending Romance/Drama
Added 7/12/2008

If you didn't see this the one week it was at the show, you probably missed this excellent drama, set in the depression era. Mountain folk, mountain morals, mountain laws, a mountain woman single mother (Kelly McGillis) and a city man watchmaker widower (Kurt Russell) are the elements of this heartbreaking and heartwarming romance.

This is a very slow paced movie, so you have to be in the mood, but don't try to find out more about it than I have told you so you can experience it completely. Pick a rainy day when you can turn off all distractions and immerse yourself into this tale of Americana. You will feel like youv'e found a secret treasure.

This is a good movie. If your are looking for today's special effects - forget it. This movie actually has substance. It is worth your time. Another good role for Kelly McGillis, and well done.

One of my Favorites

This was first showed to me in my school in North Carolina. I suppose the pupose was to show us what the cultures were like in the mountains of NC.. the blue ridge. I have always remembered it as being a very good family film with quality acting. I have been looking for it and finally found it here. Kurt is great in anything... you can really tell that he acts for the enjoyment of it and that carries over in everything he does. Wonderful supporting cast and Phenomenal work by McGillis. Very very good
