Truth S This is by far the worst movie I ever watched with Walter Matthau And Jack Lemmon. They make Mr. Matthau look way older then he was at the time the movie was made and the plot is not even funny. If you like Matthau and Lemmon acting together do not watch this movie as you will be very disappointed. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/11/24 Full Review Hunter J Set against the backdrop of Truman Capote's childhood in the South, this narrative delicately uncovers the subtleties and quirks of small-town life, infused with humor and sharpness. The film's rich visuals and rhythmic tempo conjure a relaxed atmosphere, reminiscent of the simpler times of the 1930s. Enhanced by warm, golden sepia tones, the scenes gently draw us into Collin's memories, through whose perspective the story unfolds. It masterfully brings to life the Southern charm, the era's social etiquette, and the quaint leisure activities, painting a vivid picture of the world that the characters inhabit. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/28/23 Full Review Ben C It's truly a pity that Hollywood doesn't produce such magnificent works more frequently, perhaps only once every decade or so. The adaptation of Capote's masterpiece is so flawlessly executed by a meticulously chosen cast, it's absolutely awe-inspiring. In an era dominated by violent action films created by those who profess to despise violence yet profit from it, The Grass Harp stands out as a paragon of refinement and high-quality literary storytelling. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/28/23 Full Review Kevin C An adaptation that truly captures the essence and nuances of Truman Capote's magnificent novel. It immerses the viewer in the vibrant atmosphere, colors, and delicate sensitivities of the original work. The standout element is the performances, which shine brightly. There's a genuine passion in recreating every detail of a bygone world. This is not just an adaptation, but a thoughtful tribute to a unique way of viewing life and its inherent magic. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/13/23 Full Review Audience Member The Grass Harp is a novel by Truman Capote, based (in part) on his a youth, living with a pair of aunts in a southern town.
