Camille's late husband had a violent past on the wrong side of the law, and since his passing she and her teenaged children - Florida (Lacey Chabert) and Blue (Patrick McCullough) - have been the subject of a great amount of uncharitable local

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.

The movie, which could have been historically intriguing, ends up more of a generic soap opera.

The Scoundrel's Wife looks great and Pitre fills the film with solid performances all around.

Audience Reviews for The Scoundrel's Wife (The Home Front)

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.
