Review of The Trip to Bountiful

Oh man, what peice of work. I'll admit to being a Horton Foote fan anyway, but THIS movie drills deep into your soul and will stay there as long as you draw breath. There's a spark inside Geraldine Page that finally combusts in a darkened bus depot-- a scene that is the result of masterful character development. No explosion from the biggest-budget action flick can match the concussion of Page's long-suppressed screed.
