Movie Reviews of Canvas
Movie Review: Accuracy with a heart
Summary: 5 Stars
Never heard of this movie, but saw it on TV. What a sleeper this one must have been at the box office that I missed it. I'm a psych nurse and this has the honesty of the heart-wrenching struggles with psychophrenia that touches an entire family, and the sensitivity that protects the dignity of the victim(s) of this illness. It is beautifully and empathically developed and touchingly performed. Kudos to whomever did the screenplay. Genius.Movie Review: Art is good for the soul
Summary: 5 Stars
Canvas accurately depicts a family struggling to cope with a family member who has schizophrenia. It is both heartwarming and uplifting to see such a difficult subject being tackled by Hollywood. The performances are excellent and there is a vivid portrayal of what it is like for a child to be publicly embarassed by a parent's bizarre behavior, yet love that parent at the same time.Movie Review: Canvas DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie has been viewed by several of our Nami Wood County, Ohio members and we are now ordering several more copies to be placed in our library for organizations and other family members to view. We believe it is one of the most "real life" discriptions of how mental illness affects families. It's an "oscar" to us.

Movie Review: DVD:Canvas
Summary: 5 Stars
I felt that this movie brought mental illness down to a manageable level. It portrayed someone who could have been a family member and showed how this person (the mom) could handle her mental illness by use of medication and therapy to become a productive member of society.Movie Review: A View from the Life of a Working Class family
Summary: 5 Stars
Canvas the Movie does what few films have done. It depicts the struggles of a family member who is experiencing paranoid schezophrenia and it show the confused but loving attempts of the family members to in some way connect to their loved one and each other.
