4 out of 5 stars The Rising Place; Easy Watching.......2007-02-06

I bought this film as a fan of Billy Campbell's and was prepared for the 2nd rate kind of film that he unfortunately lands parts in! This film was different though. Very much of it's genre but well written and acted. A rather sweet, sad and poignant film and the hanky will be needed by some. If you are in the mood for some Easy Watching then I'd recommend this film.

4 out of 5 stars Two thumbs up.......2005-04-07

If you liked "Fried Green Tomatoes" and "To Kill a Mockingbird," you will love "The Rising Place." In addition to its compelling story and beautiful cinematography, this character driven movie really showcases the talents of supporting actresses such as Frances Fisher (Titanic) and S. Epatha Merkerson (Law & Order). The soundtrack is also excellent, and this debut film by Director Tom Rice may some day be a collector's edition.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent movie.......2004-03-09

This was an excellent must see movie. I enjoyed this more that Fried Green Tomatoes and highly recommend it. A must have.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Tale of the Times.......2004-03-08

Tom Rice and (the author of the original book) have captured a period, a place and a feeling that will take you back in time. A seemingly simpler place with the amazingly similar concerns of today. The relationship of two women portrays what is missing in all of us, and those too willing to judge our shortcomings.
With an amazing cast and wonderful period piece settings, the only thing lacking in this film was greater box office success. This movie shows that passion can more than offset a limited budget, with a resultingly wondrful postcard from the past.

5 out of 5 stars Tyro Jones.......2004-01-25

One of the best movies I've seen in a long, long time. Very moving and beautifully filmed. Excellent. A must get and see.
