amazing acting by Duvall. the story was sad until the very end (I thought); the poor son had to deal with all that jazz the whole movie, I was sorta sad I didn't think of asking my sister to the prom *blush*. I thought the saddest part by far was the black guy getting shot. Very multi-dimensional. Worth a watch if you wanna cry.

Despite a strong performance from Robert Duvall, I felt the story based on a novel by Pat Conroy, fell into some overly melodramatic territory. The writing is over-the-top (as is some of the acting) and is the film seems to have a made-for-TV vibe. The film is about a career marine (Bull Meechum - played by Duvall) who commonly moves his family about to different locations, depending on where he is stationed. This time he brings them to the lovely southern town of Beaufort, SC bright and early. After Bull Meechum returns and moves with his family, tensions - particularly between father and son become very apparent and escalate. Duvall and O'Keefe earned Academy Award nominations for their performances. Some very nice location photography.

Good character study, with Duvall in fine form as usual.
