Product: Snow Falling on Cedars (2000)
Rating: 4.0
Full of imagery, but a little slow.
Unfortunately, this movie does not capture the drama that the novel had. If you have not read the novel, or don't care, you should enjoy the movie. The cinematography is wonderful, but the story moves along a little slow. The love story and the courtroom battle seem to drag on until the end of the movie when they are resolved. The movie should have been 15 minutes shorter. The good thing, however, about the length, is that it gives you time to soak in the wonderful scenery and film editing this movie has, that alone is worth the price of admission.The DVD features a 15 minute behind the scenes, and a commentary. Pretty Nice. Reccomended.
