Negative Positive
Title: A haunting masterpiece.
Review: When I first saw this film I was taken by the naturalistic acting and authentic setting and look of the period (the '50s). Housekeeping has become one of my favorite movies of all time. The characters, played by Lahti and newcomers Andrea Burchill and Sara Walker, were so convincing as aunt and nieces that they make the story compelling and heartbreaking. Forsyth was very faithful to the spirit of the novel. I highly recommend the film to anyone who likes offbeat characters, beautiful location shots, and good old-fashioned story-telling. Then read the novel and it will enrich your viewing experience.
