Featured review
This movie is in a way a great documentary on the life of early Christian migrants living in America.
The story is a witchcraft practices among the girls of a small community to get the man they love and then the subsequent developments.
Dialogues are fantastic and give you immediate sense of psycho, social life sphere of the time.
As always, watching Daniel Day-Lewis is immense enjoyment. Winona Ryder is amazing, Joan Allen is outstanding.
One would love watching these motional and deceptive scenes.
And I love also the performance of Judge, Paul Scofield, who brings sort of Godly authority to the situation.
It is a two hours movie, and feel like a comedy type but quiet serious.
Setting also gives lots of info about the life of early migrants to America.
Moral story of the movie is evil power of group thinking, and scapegoating.
After the movie you will Google who is Winona Ryder (if you don't know her like me)
