Title: Better than Newman and Welles
Review: Remakes seldom hold a candle to the originals, but this remake is head and shoulders above its source material. At the heart of it are two standout performances by Don Johnson and Jason Robards who explode from the small screen with such power as to leave the two fine actors in the dust who originally played the parts of Ben Quick and Old Man Varner. Combined with incredible production values and a fine supporting cast, the 85' version thoroughly supplants the 58' version as the definitive dramatic rendition of the work of William Faulkner. Bring it to DVD, please!!!!!
