Review of Home from the Hill (1987) by Lisa L — 20 Feb 2009
A movie 'worth seeing'. Mitchum is at the top of his game and Peppard gives a surprisingly noteworthy performance. Directed by Vincente Minnelli, this true to form Gothic tale will resonate with all that grew up in a flawed, dysfunctional family--or know someone who did.
If you were raised in the South, you will understand, know the characters. While not on the directorial level as Gigi and An American in Paris, Home from the Hill is a prize of a movie--and will give you much to think about.
Wonderful film even though it's a bit long at nearly 2 1/2 hours.
