Simply beautiful, 9 March 1999
Author: vina from Hampton, VA

Robert Duvall has mentioned in several interviews that "Tomorrow" was one of his favorite movies that he worked on. He also mentioned that it was one of his most esoteric works. The movie disappeared from the theatres mostly because Duvall wasn't quite a marquee name at the time and furthermore, the actors weren't conventionally beautiful or handsome. And then there was that accent that Duvall affected... Anyway, this was based on a short story by Faulkner that was published in the Saturday Evening Post back when short stories could be published in anything other an anthology. It is also one of my favorite movies. The love story was touching and sweet. The ending had me bawling. And nobody was turned into a fish.
