Reviews for The Trip to Bountiful
In this small, sharply observed tale from Horton Foote, the great Geraldine Page plays an elderly widow, who longs to go back to her idyllic small-town roots; shapeless, the film is mostly a showcase for its actors.
Revolves around the yearning an elderly woman has to visit the farmstead where she grew up and raised her own family.
