VHS Movie Reviews of The Dollmaker [VHS]
Movie Review: Think before you act!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie will give some second thoughts to those who hastily make decisions in one's life before carefully considering the consequences. Gertie (Jane Fonda) who believes in hard work and simple living, soon experiences turmoil when her husband Clovis (Levon Helm) uproots the family from the Kentucky mountains to the city of Detroit.
After adjusting to the new environment,followed by a series of hardships including a tragic death of one of the children, Gertie regains her strength to take charge to salvage what remains of her family.
This is a must see movie. It is inspirational and thought provoking. The strength and determination of this woman should be an example to everyone experiencing difficulties in life
Movie Review: review
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this movie for my girlfriend. She talked about a movie that her mother and she use to watch before her mother passed away. Finally she remembered the name of it so i searched it online and the first one i found i purchased. She says that she loves the movie because Gertie reminds her of her mother.Movie Review: Excellent movie
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a really good movie, made from a book written by someone who actually lived the life portrayed. Very good movie!!Movie Review: A woman's worth
Summary: 5 Stars
Jane Fonda is unforgettable as a resourceful, unassuming, uniquely gifted, remarkably loyal, and courageous country woman. Her husband, a struggling Appalachian sharecropper, finds a job in the big city of Detroit in the early twentieth century. Believing he has found a better life for his family, he sends for them. They uproot themselves from their familiar rural homeland, and join him in a crowded, dehumanizing, housing development set up for factory workers. Soon the family, and the main character (The Dollmaker) begin to unravel and self-destruct. In the middle of crisis she realizes her worth and integrity. Its a story filled with deep loyalty and family love. Movie Review: The Dollmaker
Summary: 5 Stars
An outstanding film that should be made available on DVD. Jane Fonda portrays realistically a woman of her time. The lessons taught in this movie are numerous and important.
I highly recommend it be re-issued on DVD.
