Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
MartinHafer This movie stars the same cast as the same family from the earlier television movies, The House Without a Christmas Tree and The Holiday Treasure. It picks up rather seamlessly from the previous television movies about this same 1940s family.The first half of the movie is a bit slow compared to previous offerings. In particular, a few of the scenes involving Addie and her friends were a bit overplayed by the kids, but not horribly so. However, once the main issues came forth midway through the movie, it hit television gold. The people and problems they encounter are so realistically written and portrayed that this, like the previous movies, is a MUST see!
bigtommyboy Wow......These Addie Mills CBS TV specials are so fantastic......I have enjoyed all four of them.......the only one that has never been available on VHS is "Addie and the King of Hearts" which is the Valentine's Day special..........The Easter Promise is so touching and once again Jason Robards shines........this is worth checking out!!!!!!
