Christopher Reeve is good if a bit stiff and Vanessa Redgrave is exquisite as always but the pace is slow and the central character and lead actress lack a radiance and fire that is essential for the story to engage.
A sweet film. Christopher Reeve looks hansome and plays well throughout. I liked the storyline, it was interesting to watch. Some of the characters you can really feel their frustration or admiration. I enjoyed it, I watched it twice. =)
Not a very lively adaptaion, a bit drawn out and slow in places to its detriment.
This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "The Bostonians" !
