A lovely film!

I don't think I stopped smiling from the first frame until the end, even though a few times I was smiling through tears. Call it a chick flick if you will, but this is a film with great heart and more than a little gravitas. I have enjoyed Adriana Trigiani's novels for years and was pleased to see that Big Stone Gap was to be made into a film. I admit that I was a bit skeptical about the author serving as writer and director, but kudos to her for an outstanding job! The cast is excellent -- Ashley Judd and Patrick Wilson are just right as not-so-young single residents of a small Virginia town where everybody wants to mind their business. The supporting cast includes veteran actors such as Whoopi Goldberg, Jenna Elfman and Judith Ivey, who really pull their weight. It's funny, heartwarming, and absolutely beautiful, shot on location in the real town of Big Stone Gap, Virginia, where Trigiani grew up (and where Patrick Wilson's grandparents lived. Go figure.) No phony Southern accents in this film - They get it right. Thank you!!

the actors

Obvious, it is more a film of actors than one of story. The life in a small town challenges about marriage after 40 years old and the revelation about father are well used . Not the most inspired jokes, few serious fists of cliches but nice in large measure.

Beautiful job of Ashley Judd and Patrick Wilson And fair end , too pink in some measure but fair.

OK film, that under performs.

A small town woman in the late 70s whose at that age when she should be married with children, by the standards of the town, discovers who her real father is, which causes her to take a second look at life.

The story is laid out perfectly as Ashley Judd leads and ensemble cast that features Whoopi Goldberg, Jenna Elfman, and Patrick Wilson. It's one of those things that delivers by the third act, and it makes you feel good inside.

However the first two acts are not that inspiring for me. The jokes seem off and the delivery was pretty lackluster.

The whole thing may have been too corny for my taste and more suitable for the small town folks the story is about.

The movie ends strong, but not so strong that I would recommend watching the entire thing.

Great Movie!

Adriana Trigiani is a fantastic writer especially if you are from the south and have moved away. Her humor is spot on with her southern twist. Love her books and have anxiously awaited seeing this movie for some time. I hope it gets better distribution soon. Fantastic cast. Ashley Judd, Whoopi & Jenna Elfman were cast perfectly for their characters and so was everyone else. Scenery was beautiful. I have read nearly all of her books and I hope we have a sequel soon because the story just gets better and better in the other books. Prepare to laugh and laugh. Her portrayal of a true small southern town is so special. You feel like you are part of the town and you feel like you know everyone. It's a turn back in time of the way things used to be. It's a special movie full of heart and soul.

Love this movie!!!

I read where someone said it was a film that would only interest residents of Big Stone Gap. Not true! It does however, depict a way of life that is fast fading away. The movie is set in 1978, as was the book of the same title, but I can tell you having visited the area, that it remains largely unchanged today. Trigiani consistently creates characters in her novels that touch our hearts and become our friends. This movie version of her debut novel truly brings her already vibrant characters to life. I credit the honesty of the film, and it's adherence to the original story, to Trigiani's hands-on approach to movie making. It is obvious her heart and soul went into this project. If the reviewers who criticize would only slow down, step back, and allow themselves to be transported to this simpler time and place, they too would fall in love with Big Stone Gap.

Curiosidades
Actor Patrick Wilson's family is from the town of Big Stone Gap.

John Benjamin Hickey's Mustang has Virginia antique car plates. The car would have been only 14 years old at the time. In Virginia a car must be at least 25 to get antique tags.

Citações
[first lines]
Ave Maria Mulligan: [narrating] When I was a girl we drove past the coal mines, it looked like a story book to me. It seemed an army of men was doing something so important it could change the world. That's when Mama would say, "Every time you light a lamp to read, you can thank a coal miner." I was born and raised in the hills of Virginia when coal was king.
Ave Maria Mulligan: Life was simple in Big Stone Gap. You went to Zackie's for your jeans, you went to Gilley's for your engagement ring. And you went to my family drugstore when you were sick. On Friday nights you rooted for the Vikings, and after the game you went for burgers at Carmine's to celebrate, because we never lost.
Ave Maria Mulligan: Every year we put on The Trail of the Lonesome Pine, the story of a mountain girl and the mining engineer who loved her. You either acted a part or played in the band or worked behind the scenes, like me. One year was a lot like the last, and before I knew it, it was 1978 and I turned 40. Almost overnight I was the old maid in Big Stone Gap. It seemed like happiness was for other people.
