Movie Reviews of The Shell Seekers
Movie Review: WONDERFUL! Not to be missed!
Summary: 5 Stars
A beautiful, warm, and compelling film, THE SHELL SEEKERS is one of television's few genuine film masterpieces. Originally produced as a Hallmark Hall of Fame presentation, this absorbing and all too human drama deserves much more widespread attention.
Though it may not follow the book in every respect, it nonetheless stands on it's own. (And --please!--readers
of the book should ALLOW it to stand on it's own, as any film is meant to do, judging it on IT'S OWN merits and not against their memory of the book!)
Well written and beautifully filmed, it features outstanding performances by a well rounded cast of uniformly excellent actors, not the least of whom is star Angela Lansbury.
In a day in which grown children find it all too easy to blame their parents for every childhood shortcoming, the warmth, compassion, and uplifting message of this filmic gem can help bring healing and insight to many of today's
searching "thirtysomethings". This isn't just a movie, it's a healing and enlightening experience. It can also
bring encouragement and support to today's "sixty-somethings" who have felt the brunt of false guilt and
undeserved criticism from ungrateful offspring.
Unavailable on television or video for many years, truly this is a film not to be missed. It's a beautiful, poignant video that belongs in every family's video library.
