Review of Home from the Hill (1987) by Jochen W — 02 Nov 2010
Horrendous. A lumbering, plodding beast of a soap opera that spends most of its time sauntering around doing nothing, or going around in circles. This is exacerbated by some woeful dialogue and acting - even Mitchum, who can usually be counted on for some entertainment, seems bored.
George Hamilton is a joke - Peppard fares slightly better. It takes Minnelli and the writers 2 1/2 hours to tell this very thin story, but you could make a pretty educated guess as to where it's going after about 20 minutes.
