Saving Grace B. Jones

We gave this movie a chance because we felt sorry for Tatum O'Neill trying to make a comeback. But we were let down. Her speaking parts were few and far between and the plot was non-existent. The whole story is she is the crazy sister that just got out of mental hospital. Children in this movie were beyond annoying and pointless to the film. The trailer made it seem like a thriller but it could not have been less.

We regret the $6 dollars we paid to watch this on pay-per-view. This movie reminds me of Oprah Winfrey's Beloved, an unintentional comedy because it is so ridiculous with over the top acting and a stupid story.

This had the makings of a good movie, but was thoroughly spoilt by the bad directing and terrible acting. One or two could act reasonably well, the rest were awful and so was the music score.

I had the feeling that Connie Stevens, cast the parts to friends and family, and used her choice of music from the past. She also wrote the story line and directed....that says it all.

Tatum O'Neal was dreadful and her terrible acting destroyed the movie.

Such a shame because the storyline had the makings of a good movie

I think the first review (and only other one), was posted by one of the team from the movie.

I thought this was a great movie, very sad story to say the least, seems that Grace was brought home to be ignored, not included. Tatum O'Neal,Michael Biehn,Penelope Ann Miller, the entire cast brought me back in time, to a lost era,I would have preferred to have grown up in the 1950's vs what we have now, simple, wholesome life, Similar to Loving Vincent, If your a little crazy or you have family members who are the same, we'll this is worth watching, honestly If your not a little crazy your missing out, lol

Growing up in Kansas I have known real families who suffered tragedy in similar ways. It is a step back in time. Three of the four kids tended to over act but otherwise the acting is very good and the story haunted me long after. Give it a chance. I think some reviewers missed the point. Connie was simply sharing a story based on her childhood experience. Ironically sent away to keep her safe in rural Missouri after a traumatic witnessing of a horrible act in the big Apple. There is tragedy everywhere. It's slow paced but it makes it seem real and I don't understand the reviews that say they weren't touched by the story. It's really about a family's suffering which no one ever deserves but is part of life.

Lousy dubbing, but the script, the story based on real events, very moving, in the end it hurt my soul the pain of that father, brother, husband, how many losses ... Wonderful film by actress Connie Stevens who at 74, makes her debut in the direction with a semi-autobiographical film ... Touching, deep, touching, left me with that little pain in my heart at the end, little films touch me so deeply ... Deep ...
