A Thousand Roads (2005)
sentimental

This movie is sentimental and banal. Mainly because the screenplay is so bad, very condescending and dull. It seems amazing Eyre could ever have been involved with this movie---a simple look at complex issues and lives. The humor and quirkiness of Eyre's films is totally missing. The music is fine, but can't save the story. The actors seem to be struggling against stories they can't believe. There might as well be American Flags waving and rippling now and then. A Weirdly blah movie. Upsetting in its full tilt romanticism. Eyre's series on PBS are terrific and the stories are real and good and Smoke Signals is an amazing movie. So this is quite a shock.
