Movie Reviews of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow
Movie Review: maureen kearney
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently watched The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and give it a 5 star rating.
I grew up just North of Tarrytown, NY where Sleepy Hollow is located. In the Fall The Hollow is often shrouded in fog in early mornings and early evenings. The area, which extends along the Hudson River, lends itself to imaginings of ghosts and goblins, which the early Dutch were very good at doing: The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Rip Van Winkle, as well as other stories put down in writing by Washington Irving.
I grew up with these stories and look forward to hearing or seeing them again at this time of year. I have also passed the tradition along to my children.
I think I have seen and heard just about every adaptation from Ed Begley's re-telling of the story on tape, reading it from an old printing of the story, and, of course, Disney's cartoon version.
I think this adaptation is the best I have seen. It captures the mysterious and haunting feeling of the region in Fall, the looks, traditions, dress, and speech of the early Dutch settlers, and the story as it was told to Washington Irving.
Tim Burton's movie Sleepy Hollow is a good film for what it is, but it is not an accurate re-telling of the classic.
Sincerely,
Maureen Kearney
