5 out of 5 stars A TRUE CLASSIC.......2007-06-10

5 out of 5 stars Cross Creek.......2007-05-14

This is a great movie about the author of the Yearling and Jacobs Ladder and how she started as a writter and all the problems that she had starting her career. I have been to her home in Florida and it was enjoyable to see this movie.

5 out of 5 stars BEST OF "On Location" filmed movies.......2007-05-12

A great movie about a very interesting woman and great film-making; filming in the non-familiar areas of Florida, is pure delight. Scruffy out of the way Florida scenes are just wonderful. One really gets the feel of how it must have been in the 20's when Marjorie first came to the area and was inspired to write her books. The special features are really good also!!

5 out of 5 stars Pleasant Movie - Very Relaxing.......2007-05-05

I adored this movie along with everyone in my family. Perfect movie to watch together! There's every emotion: laughter, suspense, sadness, love of friend and lover, joy, and celebration of life!

This movie will draw you into its arms and give you a hug. Great for men and women.

Peter Coyote is a stand out! you'll recognize his voice as I did from documentaries and other narrated films. He's an incredible actor.

Rip Torn does a spectacular job as a "cracker" who's taken his family to live in rural Florida. His daughter is the inspiration of the author's, Ms Rawlings', wonderful novel, The Yearling.

The viewer is drawn back to the Depression Era through a wondrous camera lens right in the location of the actual events. Perhaps it has been cleaned up a bit from those difficult times, yet it's so great seeing the dusty old cars and fashions, the barefoot kids, and the primitive life of a bygone era.

The book's story line from which this movie is based has been slightly altered in the film, but overall it somehow captures the same message, "be yourself in pursuing your dreams, and you'll achieve them."

5 out of 5 stars A "Cross" to bare.......2007-04-02

This is one of the most beautiful films I've ever seen. Everything about this film says "beauty". From the beautiful storyline to beautiful scenery this film tugs at your heartstrings. Mary Steenburgen is perfect (and yes beautiful!) as Marjorie Rawlings who seeks to discover her true calling in the Florida backwoods. The music is....well beautiful. I wish a soundtrack was available for this film, as I would buy it in a second. By the way, this film received a 5 minute standing ovation at Sundance. Why? Because it delivers the goods. If you are looking for a film to "fill your heart", you found it. Watch and enjoy. I hope I run into Mary Steenburgen one day (quite possible here in L.A.) as I want to tell her how great and beautiful she was in this film (it's important that she know!!!)
