Tuck Everlasting

I don't care if you like it or not this is one of the best movies you will ever see that was made in the early 80s. I think this is the greatest movie I have ever seen because at the end of the movie when time has passed they show a clip of them driving down downtown Medina NY and that is so frickin awesome you could alway go to Medina and check out the location it has changed sense then but that napa store is definitely still there also you could stop at the local library and check out the movie yourself as long as it is in (vhs only). The new movie doesn't compare to this classic they were made in two different states for Christ sakes.

If you have ever had a dream in your life that you think "has to be real" this is a must see movie. It is a very quaint unassuming movie that will take you to a trance-like state at the ending, and leave you there forever. It is sad and happy at the same time.

No matter how many past lives you have lived, this is the one that ended with integrity and a sense of yearning for those left behind. It takes the boundaries of "space/time" to an understandable level of enjoyment and acceptance but leaves a life stuck in eternity at a yearning standstill.

This movie is like a wonderful daydream, with beautiful scenery, and lovely music. It's set in the early 20th century, I think, and it's about a lonely, over-protected girl, named Winnie Foster (in the book she's supposed to be ten years old), who one day decides to take a walk in the woods. There she meets a boy of seventeen, Jesse Tuck, who immediately takes a liking to her. Soon she is drawn into the Tuck family's fantastic (and in a way horrible) secret, and must protect them from a man who's after them. I almost can't explain how magical this movie is. My favourite character was Jesse and I wish the actor (Paul Flessa) had been in other movies. I think almost my favourite thing about this movie, though, was the music. It's written by Malcolm Dalglish and Grey Larsen, who are both exceptional at the instruments they play (the flute, the hammered dulcimer(?), and others). The music sounds rather like a waterfall, and a soundtrack would be amazing, though I realize it's not a popular enough movie to have one. If you love children's novels, you should definitely see this incredible movie.

This is a great film and should be much better known. It features all amateur actors who are excellent in their roles and generally superior in every way to professional actors. The movie, filmed in upstate New York, is low-key, gentle, and magical.

This movie was nothing like the book. While the book was attention-grabbing and inspiring, the movie is cheesy and boring! Jesse falling off a ferris wheel? Did they even have ferris wheels back then? And unless Mae Tuck was attempting suicide, there is no way she could have cut her finger completely off just by cutting a damn piece of food! I couldn't even get the first 15 minutes before I literally fell asleep. If you can't fall asleep, this is a good movie, if you want entertainment, don't even think about this poor excuse for a movie.
