Review of The Last Sin Eater (2007) by Matt H — 17 Aug 2007
:up: Why are the critics so against this film? I found it to be an entertaining drama which, while at times hard to watch (the scene where the village elder does what he does to the visiting preacher and his own son immediately comes to mind), has a great story, and deserves to be seen by all.
The film, about a village of people from Wales, England, who've reverted to the pagan use of a sin eater rather than the more common faiths in the 1850's Appliatchias is a moving, touching piece of filmography. The cast is strong, the Welsh dialect is dead-on (so listen carefully), and the shots of the Appilacian Mountains is breath taking. Cudos to Michael Landon, Jr for creating this mini masterpiece.
If you have a chance to view this film, do. You won't be disappointed.
