VHS Movie Reviews of Separate Peace (1972) [VHS]
Movie Review: Mediocre but helpful
Summary: 3 Stars
As a high school English teacher, I tend to do a lot of compare/contrast work with my students. I used this video to compare with the novel, which my sophomore students read and listened to on audiotape.
Overall, they were disappointed and bored with the video. The acting is often stilted and stereotyped, although I realize that the parts were very difficult to cast.
The use of the original setting of the school was helpful for imagery.
What the cinematographers did in relation to "the tree" was good and helped my students grasp its symbolism better.
I felt that the video version left out several important elements of the theme, which was unfortunate.
Overall, the movie was mediocre but helpful. I hope someone tackles this key piece of literature again and does a remake that is more on the mark.
