VHS Movie Reviews of The Land Girls
Movie Review: A nice romp in the English countryside
Summary: 3 Stars
Here is another of those little movies, that catch your attention and end up staying on your mind long after they end. While flipping through the movie channels, I came across Land Girls. I just happenend on the roll in the hay scene between Anna Friel and Steven Mackintosh. Well naturally, I stopped my surfing to take in this wonderful and comedic moment of the film. Having been hooked, I watched the remainder and like other reviewers was surprised to learn of the "Land Girls". Yet another aspect of the Second World War that I had yet to learn.
The three woman Catherine McCormack, Rachel Weisz, Anna Friel are a delight to watch. It would be difficult to imagine three more appealing women in this setting. Mackintosh is equally appealing as a young man stuck on the farm and for some reason passed over by the recruiting boards. And yet, what a lucky fellow to pass his days with such lovely and interesting women.
So, it is true that the Merchant and Ivory crowd will probably find this moving more appealing than the average "meat and potatoes" film viewer, but this movie has just enough spice, energy and beauty to hold even the non-chic flick viewer's attention.
It certainly held mine through successive viewings. I guess I hoped that she would finally step off the train at the end...I guess I really wanted that ending. Watch this engaging film and see if you too...don't wish for the same ending.
