Rachel River (1987)
My Rating
Movie Info
Rachel River is a small town in Minnesota. When local "looney tune" Aileen Cole dies, the town comes to the slow realization that the reclusive Cole has in fact touched the lives of virtually every citizen--and nearly always in a positive manner. That realization is so slow because, immediately after Cole's demise, everyone is more concerned with scrambling to recover a buried treasure rumored to be on the old woman's property. The very thin plotline is fleshed out by individual episodes

Well acted by Pamela Reed, the film offers a vivid, comic and touching view of ordinary life in rural Minnesota.
A magical movie about the emotional education of adults in a small Minnesota town.
