Salmonberries

Rating:
Summary: I Love This Movie!
Review: Salmonberries is one of my favorites, a touching and subtle story of love as two women help each other come out of their shells. It's too bad the production qualities are poor, but if you watch it again, you can pick up what you missed the first time.

Summary: Glimpse of Life in a Snowy World
Review: Salmonberries provides a view of a life that few of us will experience, in the polar region, on the edge of wilderness. People there know intense weather, and often great lonliness. The film deals with this lonliness, and its expression in song. A wonderful haunting piece sung by K.D. Lang, who also gives a fine acting performance.

Summary: BAD BAD BAD
Review: This has to be one of the worst Lesbian movies ever made!! Stay away, far far away...only for the k.d. Lang fans.

Summary: why is it not known more?
Review: this is a fab film. the music is just one excellent bit. the bizarre bingo scene stuff is, to be fair, best left in the polar regions- but despite the setting, this is a warming and positive film which tackles some complex and interesting issues on its way through. it is much more than a showcase for k.d.- although she does, obviously, shine in a film that was written for her. the lighting and the setting, the story and the twists, the music and getting to watch k.d. maked in a library (don't ask- watch it? ) are elements of a splendid whole. okay, so it is a bit dated now, and not everyone wants to engage with lead characters howling in radar dish. but i think that it's worth the watching: saw it for the first time many years ago and can still remember clearly crucial and powerful parts. buy it- even if it's the only way to get your hands on what i think is the best song that kd has ever done.

Summary: Simply Awful
Review: This is one of those movies that is so self-important that if you don't like it, you are made to feel as if you are intellectually incapable of "getting it." I say that this is a case where the Emperor is naked. This movie is contrived and uninteresting. And heaven forbid that you watch the bonus features... Honestly! You'd think that this movie was up to getting a Nobel Prize.

Summary: mildly interesting, but not what I thought it would be
Review: This movie was ok, as I said mildly interesting, but less "explicit" more sensual than sexual (with only a brief "nude" scene by ms. lang). It was an interesting study of two people, tormented by secrets, and each seeking their respective pasts.
Permeated by the "haunting" as it has been described song by ms. lang "Barefoot", it was a study in the lives of two sad, lonely, people. I was surprised to find Chuck Conners in this movie, but his role was minimal. Renting it would be ok, or if buying...

Summary: Horrible
Review: This movie was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. It was slower than you could possibly imagine and utterly boring, boring, boring. Were they trying to be artsy or just taking up time with long scenes of snow and an abrupt view, without reason, of K.D. Lang naked--this shot must have been her idea--... I fast forwarded through the entire movie after I saw that it was really going no where and without a plot that I could detect. What was the point?

Summary: One freaked out flick - horrible!!!
Review: Watching this movie was painful. Storyline impossible to follow, k.d. lang naked, scenes which seemed like hallucinations, slow, and boring. Don't waste your time or money...
