THE BEST MOVIE EVER MADE ON THIS SUBJECT
This film is so beautifully crafted that it deserves to be recognized as one of the most inspiring and uplifting films ever made. You cannot watch THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN and possibly feel sorry for yourself. The film demands the viewer to find his or her own strength within no matter what his circumstances are. THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN was a surprise hit for Universal back in 1975. With no advanced publicity, the studio hurried it into movie theaters after a private screening at Universal that left all it's top executives in tears. I remember it as "the film that would not go away". Word of mouth spread about how effective and moving it was keeping The Other Side of the Mountain playing in various movie houses off and on for years. This new DVD transfer under the VAULT SERIES collection is GORGEOUS. The sound crisp and the widescreen colors intact. I think the film holds up better today than it did in 1975. It may not be a critics picture but The Other Side...
Great film.
I first saw this in the theater when I was 16 and cried like a little school girl. Something a grown man does not admit to often. Just thinking of it makes me misty. One of the best movies ever. Why this actress didnt go on to do many other films is beyond me. She is great. I am ordering it and part 2, today. BUY IT. But buy a , no two boxes of klennex.
heartlifting
one of the most lifting movies of all time, both of these movies.The fact that these are true stories makes them even sweeter. read the paperback books also.i would love to meet or atleast talk to jill kinmont, shes 75 now, but the last i heard she is still alive. Remember you can overcome anything with love and determination.
