Audience Reviews for Driftwood

  • Jan 29, 2011
    Sweet, sometimes overly sweet, homespun drama with a cast of veterans making it all palatable. Not really very deep but still a nice version of small town life at midcentury. Jerome Cowan plays an all too real life character very well, the officious politician who is really just a small minded jerk.
