Movie Reviews of My Left Foot (Special Edition)
Movie Review: Excellent Soundtrack
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently saw this movie for the first time and was impressed with the soundtrack. It is subtle, yet effective. I am a big fan of soundtrack recordings and rank this one right up there with the best. I was glad to find it on Amazon and have enjoyed adding it to my library.
Summary of My Left Foot (Special Edition)
This cinematic masterpiece is the brilliant portrayal of legendary Irishman Christy Brown (Daniel Day-Lewis) who, despite crippling cerebral palsy, learned to use his one controllable extremity -- his left foot -- to become an accomplished artist and writer. The Miramax Collector's Series proudly presents the release of the acclaimed motion picture that won Academy Awards? in 1989 for Best Actor (Daniel Day-Lewis) and Best Supporting Actress (Brenda Fricker) and earned Oscar(R) nominations for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Adapted Screenplay (1989). This special edition of MY LEFT FOOT has been digitally remastered and features a wealth of bonus material never before available on DVD!Daniel Day-Lewis won a much-deserved Oscar for his wily, passionate performance as Irish artist and writer Christy Brown, whose cerebral palsy kept him confined to a wheelchair. Filmmaker Jim Sheridan (In the Name of the Father) adapts Brown's own autobiography for this spirited piece, focusing on the sometimes-difficult fellow's formative years in his large family and in love with sundry women. Day-Lewis is inspired, and Brenda Fricker (also a recipient of an Oscar for her part in this movie) is almost luminous as Christy's dedicated mother. So, too, are Ray McAnally as the hero's stormy father, and Hugh O'Conor (The Young Poisoner's Handbook) as the child Christy. All in all, this is a complete pleasure for viewers. --Tom Keogh
