PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Aubrey Hackett While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Wyatt There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Wuchak "The Yellow Handkerchief" (2008) is a road movie about three strangers who travel across Louisiana. The group consists of a 15 year-old girl (Kristen Stewart), a geeky teen who wants to be her boyfriend (Eddie Redmayne) and a mysterious older man (William Hurt) whom the other two learn more and more about. A fourth character is the woman the Hurt character loves (Maria Bello).This is a small indie film with quality actors and a story about love and redemption that smacks of real life and leaves you with a good feeling. It's nothing that'll blow you away but, at the same time, it shows how ordinary people and their stories are more interesting than the most overblown effects-laden extravaganzas.The film runs 102 minutes and was shot in Louisiana.GRADE: B

phyllisknox This film rewards you....it is worth every moment of your watching time. The beauty of its title, the sweetness and affirming image of a yellow handkerchief...like a yellow ribbon is about waiting,welcome and coming home. The Yellow Handkerchief is a road trip movie. It is a quiet, quirky ride around the roads of Louisiana. It plays like real people who make real reconciliations and whose lives keep us captured and moving and flowing forward. William Hurt gives a performance of a supreme subtlety and beauty. Kristen Stewart, Eddie Redmayne and Maria Bello breath life into their characters. It is so rare to find such a sensitive cast that really click...a great ensemble piece ...all with a quiet nobility. Watch it.

StephenTaylor The word judgement, and its various forms, is repeated throughout this movie. I think that is really what this story is about. Brett tells Martine he worries about her because, "you have no judgement." The couple in the van ask Brett, "Are you judging us?" Maria Bello's character asks Brett, "Are you judging me?" for example. These characters are always judging someone, something, or some situation and then they have to try and understand the consequences of their judgement. All three characters are largely in the situations we find them in due to their judgement or lack of. And Kristen Stewart... wow!.... I am really looking forward to watching her talent/career develop over the next 20 years.....quite exciting.

Gary-Oldman i was looking forward to seeing this movie. i went to the video store and rented it only to come home and play it and see that they don't offer any captioning options at all. this is very unfair to those of us who are deaf/hard of hearing and need subtitles. they will loose out on DVD sales. i really wanted to watch this too. it just makes me angry when captions aren't offered on dvds. does anyone know of any copies with captions? in English.looked like a good movie. bummer. thanks for the help.-D. i'll just rent something else.
