songcatcher Submitted on: 2009-11-13 |

| I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this movie,the 'hill songs' were captivating both the words, and meaning behind them and how beautiful they sounded.The struggle of the miners to live and keep their land and still feed their children was moving.I highly recommend this to anyone my husband watched it with me and even he liked it. |

Too bad Submitted on: 2009-11-09 |

| Wonderful music and we will buy the soundtrack. But the movie could have been good if it weren't for the lesbianism (most of us do NOT want to see it portrayed on screen in such a flamboyant way), feminism, and dull ending. It's too bad they messed up what could have been a well made film. |

This was a birthday gift for a friend so I have not viewed it yet. I have seen the movie years ago and it's great!
Plus I bought myself a copy and will watch that in the near future.

| This is a charming movie. It is well acted and beautifully photographed. For anybody who likes music, from folk to classical, this movie is of great interest as it traces the connection between Appalachian music and the folk songs of Ireland and Scotland. I bought it to show to the private film club I belong to. Almost everybody who belongs to this club is a musician of some sort and we all really enjoyed it. |

Historical entertainment! Submitted on: 2009-09-25 |

From time to time I am captivated by a movie, song or book that truly takes me to a time or place of total entertainment. This movie does that. I'd seen it once before years ago, couldn't remember the title, but the story stayed with me. After being reminded of the title, I immediately ordered the movie and have enjoyed it again.
The musical history is valuable in itself. Holding on to these gifts is important to our generations to come, and this movie will inspire the viewer to remember ancestors and their contributions to our lives. |
