VHS Movie Reviews of Sarah, Plain and Tall: Winter's End [VHS]

Movie Review: Happy to find Sarah Plain and Tall
Summary: 5 Stars

My daughter teaches third grade and during their study of local history and culture, they watch this movie. She has been unable to find a copy for herself (the school has one)and we have been searching for one for her. We would have liked just the Sarah Plain and Tall but since this came as a set only, we were happy to find it. The kids love the movie and it helps them understand how early settlers survived.

Movie Review: Sarah Plain & Tall Collection
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a wonderful collection of 3 DVDs. The story is a warm and charming story of a family in the early 1900s. The main actors are great and appear in all 3 of the series -- the actors age as the story ages. I never get tired of seeing them over and over. It is one of the best series I have seen.

Movie Review: Of The Three, I Liked This Story Best
Summary: 4 Stars

I enjoyed two of the three movies in the "Sarah, Plain & Tall" trilogy. This, the final of the three, was definitely one of the "good ones." It is an excellent family film with wonderful acting by the three adult stars: Christopher Walken, Glenn Close and Jack Palance.

Of the three, that initial "Sarah," was the best-filmed with some beautiful cinematography. This movie didn't have that, but it had the best story in the trilogy. It had some genuinely-tearful sentimental moments and a very nice ending, all of which makes it highly recommended.

The storyline is simple but well-told. The only sub-par performance was by one of the kids. It was interesting, though, to see how the kids had grown since that first movie in this trilogy.

Movie Review: THE FARMER MEETS HIS MAIL-ORDER BRIDE!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a heartwarming, favorite movie collection of mind, about a love between two wonderful people, Jacob and Sarah, and Jacob's children, Anna and Caleb. Jacob and Sarah's love withstood the test of time!

Sarah a mail-order bride who lived by the sea, where there is always plenty of water, and green grass. Sarah answered Jacob's advertisement for a wife, to help him with his two children, and his farm.( I loved the hand written letters in these movies!) Jacob and his family lived in a dry place, with brown grass, and not much water, so it was a big change for Sarah, and also for Jacob, because Sarah was strong willed, and had a mind of her own, and Jacob was used to having things his own way!

I highly recommend this movie collection! I saw it years ago and I loved it! My favorite ones of the collection was Sarah Plain and Tall, and Skylark! I loved the adorable barefooted treasures! Jacob, in these movies was a man after my own heart!

Movie Review: Sarah Plain and Principled
Summary: 4 Stars

If you are looking for a wholesome film that is well acted with a storyline that is original and captivating, this is the film for you and your family. Set in historic America, it admirably portrays the upright pioneering values of God-fearing, hard-working American immigrants. The complex three dimensionality of the characters creates a chemistry rarely seen in good story-telling movies. Don't miss this one, the kids and you will love it.

Summary of Sarah, Plain and Tall: Winter's End [VHS]

The third and final episode of the Sarah, Plain and Tall series is a 1999 production reuniting stars Glenn Close and Christopher Walken with original director Glenn Jordan. Taking the story eight years beyond the original tale, Winter's End is set in a harsh Kansas winter of 1918, with the specter of death everywhere: soldiers are dying overseas during World War?I, influenza is at epidemic proportions in the U.S., and an old man has returned to the Witting farm with an uncertain reception. He's John Witting (Jack Palance), father of Jacob (Walken), and the two men have not seen each other since John abandoned his son years ago. Reconciliation comes hard, punctuated by cliffhanger disasters (Jacob breaks his leg and burns with a fever, Sarah almost dies in a heavy snowstorm), but this most brutal of trial periods for the Wittings still invites a viewer to yearn for a more innocent--perhaps mythical--time in America. A worthy and rewarding finish to a trilogy fit for families yet sophisticated enough for all ages, Winter's End may be one of the last network television classics in an era of audience relocation to multichannel cable. --Tom Keogh
