Critic Reviews
-
Caryn James, New York Times
One of these days, maybe Kurt Russell and Kelly McGillis will look back at Winter People and laugh.
-
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
The film is shot in 'Scope, but the effort is essentially wasted by dull center framing that makes the format superfluous.
-
Hal Hinson, Washington Post
An overearnest story about feudin' mountain families that's good for little more than a few hoots at its own expense.
-
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Winter People is the kind of movie where you sit there asking yourself questions that apparently never occurred to the filmmakers.
-
Clint Morris, Moviehole
Touching, and excellently performed
