| Film Journal InternationalDavid NohTedium on the Trail could be the alternative title for this logy trek through the woods. |
| User ReviewMark GInteresting natural and naturalistic story. Slow moving at times; the characters were convincing if not particularly likable. A story with tensions and conflict that are commonplace yet still poignant may not be for everyone. For me, though, this film is a welcome change from the hyped up violence and over-the-top melodrama that typifies so much of our current entertainment. The scenes of the Appalachian countryside are lovely, and again, while not normal travelogue material, gives the viewer a feel for the region. |
