The ending's emphasis on repentance, forgiveness and redemption. It's so effective it's a mite tear-inducing. As far as the dramatic vibe goes, "Desert Bloom" is reminiscent of films like "Jacknife" and "Blue Sky" It's on par with the former and better than the latter. This movie will really give you better understanding of such terms as "purposeless" and "pointless".
It's simply a series of episodes, which never add up to anything. The only thing one can recommend about this familiar drama which still doesn't make it worthwhile is the solid acting: Barkin's performance stands out. A young girl comes of age as the world itself enters a new era in this introspective period piece, set in suburban Las Vegas on the eve of the first atomic bomb tests. The film is a family crisis melodrama, seen from the sharp-eyed perspective of a shy teenager just receiving her first pair of glasses Annabeth Gish, in an admirable debut performance.
As the rifts in her family are brought into sudden focus she gains a traumatic understanding of the forces that shape adulthood. It's a curiously lopsided drama, with moments of unaffected sensitivity alongside scenes of outright hysteria, but altogether the film presents a splendid, nostalgic evocation of the awkward passage of adolescence.
MartianOctocretr5 22 February Intensely emotional, so much so, that it's hard to watch in places. Jon Voight's performance of a WWII veteran tortured and twisted mentally by his war experiences is intimidating, even volatile. The story is set in the '50's, at a time when the U. There are parallel stories, weaving the news of the nuclear technology around the conflicts of Chismore's mental cruelty and abusive behavior to his family; in particular, his coming-of-age daughter Rose Annabeth Gish.
Gish is sensational in this role; she holds her own in verbal sparring with the always skillful Jon Voight. You really feel her frustration, and love to hate Chismore.
The latter, though, slowly becomes more sympathetic as you understand his suffering more. Coming-of-age stories have a few standard plot lines, but they're handled tenderly and resist exploitation here. Rose has a boy friend, and she's learning the facts of not only her own personal life, but the ugly and frightening facts of the world simultaneously.
The final image is riveting; in a single shot, the twin points of loss of innocence--Rose's, as well the world's--are melded together brilliantly with a single camera shot. A fine movie with a powerful theme. This is a well-done movie of how a young teen Gish learns about life while being part of a dysfunctional family.
Gish portrays a somewhat nerdy girl trying to make sense of who she is while dealing with an alcoholic stepfather Voight who physically abuses her and puts the moves on her glamorous aunt who comes to live with them as she goes through a divorce. When her somewhat neglectful mother discovers this and throws out her sister, Gish's character is forced to make decisions no young teen should have to make.
Definitely catch this one! This film story initially appeared to be a more or less typical coming of age story of a teenage girl, set in the '50's at the height of the atomic bomb testing age in the desert southwest, but ended up being a sad and multi-faceted story of unrealized potential, chronic physical pain, alcoholism, paranoia, abuse, spousal enabling, ruined family potential, and of a daughter's loss of love and trust in her father due to the results of his very human and typical response to great pain That, plus another very typical male response by her father to excessive temptation by his wife's sister who, without a care for the family unit, threw her many sexual charms at her drunk brother in law.
Weak as he was in all ways he still responded, to great familial damage. Just too many human flaws and life burdens for any family to survive intact, and this one was no exception. There are some outstanding acting performances in history that I think have gone outrageously unrewarded by Oscar.
When Voight was on screen, I could not see anyone else. That defines acting greatness, and was the case with the other performances stated. And, I find it very interesting that 4 of these 5 roles demonstrated an obvious form and level of mental illness.
Maybe all of them did. Interesting point. If you have ever known anyone who was forced to live with great chronic pain you may better understand the quality of Voight's performance, his very obvious pain resulting from severe WWII wounds that he knew would dog him mean every day of his tortured life.
I knew someone with that great pain, and Voight's performance was so spot on I could not believe that someone without that pain could portray it so realistically. You want to see truly great acting? Do yourself a favor and see Jon Voight in this film and get the rest of the well made story as a bonus. Jobeth Williams is fantastic and the enabling mother who turns a blind eye to the increasing madness of her husband and it's effect on her eldest daughter.
