Bountiful to become Lifetime TV movie — Page 3

It looks like the DVD of the Geraldine Page film in 1985 is out of print! They have it on Amazon, but it's pricey. There is a full frame version of the movie (probably taken from the VHS, since the DVD was in widescreen) on YouTube in numbered sections.

Here is Part 1, for those interested:

Both versions are wonderful for very different reasons. Tyson was quieter and more subdued than Page. Both approaches to the character are valid and moving-its open to interpretation. The 1985 film felt more ethereal to me and the 2014 version felt more organic.

I think seeing Carrie as African American opens up a lot more subtext. I wondered what Jessie Mae and Ludies life was like-were they struggling because of their race and limited opportunities?

I agree Page was incredible but Tyson brings as much to the table as Page.

Any info on a DVD release?
