Reviews

dwpollar 1st watched 1/6/2002 - 4 out of 10(Dir-Stephen Purvis) Slow-moving quirky movie about a group of British filmmakers doing a documentary on whatever strange things they can find in Texas. We later find out that the couple is married and they have some difficulties that are thrown into this strange story. The problem here is that both sides of this story do not mix well. We're supposed to be happy about the end of the movie, but the character's relationship is not explored well enough to really be happy. It seemed like this movie would have worked much better if they had decided to leave out the couple and their problems. It should have either been a quirky view of unique people or a stilted romance but not both. Nice try, but this one didn't hit the spot for me.

guyb This movie was a very interesting premise and had two great leading actors. However, it was very trite and luke warm. Maybe yet another example of how hard it is to take a successful play to a movie format. I love quirky, Texas, dusty road movies and this was an insult to them!

edwartell Deep In The Heart is one of those warm and fuzzy movies in which the one character who's mentally retarded is "wiser" about human relationships than everyone around him. The story concerns an elderly, documentary-making couple who visit Austin and begin filming people. I saw this two years ago and don't remember it too well. However, I do remember that it was pretty boring, and that Cranham gave a terrific performance; he deserves better. The only reason I saw it in the first place is that I live here in Austin; it did give me a bit of a thrill to see, on screen, the tower on top of the building where I was sitting watching the movie. But if you don't live in Austin or aren't a stalker of Cranham, it makes no sense to watch this movie.
