Review of Cora Unashamed (2000) by Cynthia S — 02 Mar 2011

This is a touching, beautifully sad story. Fabulous acting. Nice scenery. Regina Taylor, Cherry Jones, and Cch Pounder did a really nice job. Sad, sad turn of events, though. Not a very happy movie...

Well....what can I say. I DO NOT think that Johnny Depp was miscast. I think that he was the best part of this silliness…

Russell Crowe gives a fantastic performance and there were some good special effects (certainly not the opening monologue or the Watchers)…
