      Audience Member Scripted by Pitre and his wife, Michelle Benoit, is more interesting for its historical setting than for its rather wooden drama, but Tim Curry gives a pretty good performance as the town's whiskey priest. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Nicely made, decent acting and a good story. The period detail is so-so - it could have been better. The Louisiana setting is a plus, it adds flavor to the film. Better than average movie. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times Just a little too ungainly, too jumbled at the end, for me to recommend, but it has heart, and I feel a lot of affection for it. Rated: 2.5/4 Apr 25, 2003 Full Review Allison Benedikt Chicago Tribune The movie, which could have been historically intriguing, ends up more of a generic soap opera. Rated: 2/4 Apr 24, 2003 Full Review Film Threat Rated: 3.5/5 Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Merle Bertrand Film Threat The Scoundrel's Wife looks great and Pitre fills the film with solid performances all around.
