Movie Reviews of The Whole Wide World
Movie Review: Beautiful movie with an amazing Vincent D'Onofrio
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this movie and it's very sad that "The Whole Wide World" is only available on DVD in the USA.
Let me say it is Vincent D'Onofrio's best work. He is amazing, fantastic and heartbreaking as writer Robert E. Howard. You see that Vincent really loves what he is doing. He is one of the finest actors ever.
As a low budget "The Whole Wide World" is wonderful filmed. Also a great work from director Dan Ireland.
Vincent D'Onofrio's sister Elizabeth is seeing as the waitress in this movie.
I love Vincent D'Onofrio's and director's Dan Ireland commentary. Great bonus!!!!
Unfortunately there are no English and only French subtitles.
After watching this movie read the books "One Who Walked Alone" by Novalyne Price Ellis and "Blood & Thunder" by Mark Finn!
Movie Review: Real Acting, True Gem for Discriminating Viewers
Summary: 5 Stars
I cannot imagine imagine how "Shakespeare in Love", Titanic (lousy script, great computers) and even worse, "American Beauty" got Oscars for actors and films etc. while a film like this which requires true acting is overlooked. While pleasing, many could have performed well in the Shakespeare film both drunk and asleep and I would not have bothered with either of the latter. The "Whole Wide World" had next to nothing by way of props or settings, it was essentially a dialogue between two actors who have to carry us the entire time and do so beautifully. My husband said it best, the Academy Awards are political brown nosing nothing more. I guess it must remain a treasure for those capable of seeing the difference.Movie Review: Sweet, Sad Love Story
Summary: 5 Stars
Other Amazon reviewers have done a great job of laying out the plot and the best features of "The Whole Wide World", so I just want to add my two cents worth. I really love this movie. It is such a touching story of two people who were in love but not able to be together. Vincent D'Onofrio breaks my heart every time I watch him in this movie. His character wants so badly to connect with Novalyn but he just can't. I cry every time!
I can't imagine that anyone would be disappointed after watching this film. It is beautifully written and filmed, and the sweetness and sadness really stays with you. Oh, and the front yard kiss between Robert and Novalyn - best screen kiss ever! I highly recommend "The Whole Wide World".
Movie Review: Incredible but true!
Summary: 5 Stars
It's thrilling that The Whole Wide World is coming out on DVD at long last! It's an experience you'll never forget! Renee Zellweger has never been spunkier or cuter or had more character. You'll fall in love with Vincent D'Onofrio and care deeply about the life of Robert E. Howard and of Novalyne Price. Thank you, Dan Ireland, for such a moving and meaningful movie about the creator of Conan the Barbarian and the wonderful young teacher he fell in love with. After seeing the movie, I bought the book One Who Walked Alone and have desperately sought all I can find about this movie. And yes, that kiss is the most amazing and breathtaking ever! I LOVE The Whole Wide World!Movie Review: Why isn't this in your cart yet?
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been awestruck by this impeccable portrayal of love. The imagery, language, direction, and acting in this movie is flawless. This movie contains a raw, pure, and uncompromised glimpse into the inner workings of an imaginative and tumultuous relationship. This movie depicts the vulnerability of two human beings and forces the viewer to become emotionally involved in their lives. It must be mentioned that 'The Whole Wide World' contains one of the best on-screen kisses of all time (who could go wrong with gifted character actor Vincent D'Onofrio?). This is a must see for anyone who appreciates a great(and true)love chronicle and movie genius.
