Sissy Spacek - Stephens Kings «Carrie». Walther Matthau and Jack Lemmon many movies together, but «Grumpy old farts» and «The Odd Couple 2» is two movies which is amusing. Mary Steenburgen - «whats eating Gilbert Grape?». Edward Furlong - Terminator 2. None of these acters will be remembered for this movie. It is boring. The south in the year 1940. Collin is 11 years old. When his mother dies, he has to live with his relatives Vera And Dolly. Vera is a sad and boring woman, but Dolly is the opposite. «The Grass Harp» is a silent story abount human relationships, different opinions and such matters. It only gets boring and a little bit special. I would rather see one of the best TV-series ever - «Ill Fly Away» which has everything that this movie don't have.

This was one of my favorite movies. The story is intriguing, and you actually feel for the different characters. The actors do well, and the story is thougtful. A good movie for a rainy day.

The Grass Harp i think has got to be one of the greatest movies ever told. I think it's a fantastic movie. Jack Lemmon is my favourite actor. i was a little disapointed as he only got a small part in the movie. But he has starred in movies as playing big parts as well as the other actors that starred in the grass harp. The all played good parts. I reconised Edward Furlong that played the kid in the movies, as he played the part of John Connor in terminator 2. He was not to star in the 3rd terminator film because he ended up on the smack. But he did a great job in terminator 2, which i think is one of the greatest movies i've ever seen, the special effects that was put into the movie. I give the grass harp 10 out of 10 because i think the movie is fantastic.

This film has a great cast and a great story, unfortunately it is sparse. The acting is so-so. Stand-out performances include Nell Carter and Sissy Spacek. The directing is less than average, and the movie is slow and rambling. Still, there is a little bit of a charming quality to it. I have never read Truman Capote's book, so I can't say if it is a good adaption or not, but I can say it is only an average film.

The plot outline is 100 per cent accurate, but by the time you get to the end of the movie, you may not care. Although the cast was stellar and the book was great, it did not translate to the movie. As much as I tried, I could not work up any feelings for the characters. I should have known something bad was afoot when I heard the infamous "Narrative Voice-over." Narrative voice-overs, sometimes known as idiot lectures, are usually a sign that the director does not trust the film by itself to advance its own storyline, and with such a stellar cast, this should have told me to hit the stop button way before the end of the film. I was truly amazed that a cast that includes Lemmon, Matthau, Spacek, McDowell, and several great sword carriers falls on its face. Read my other reviews; I love dogs, but this mutt, despite its pedigree, had to be put down.

Oh how sad it is that Hollywood cannot yield a work of this magnitude more than once every decade--or so. Capote's work is rendered to perfection by such well-selected players that it is nothing shy of breathtaking. In our times of violent action movies filmed by folks in the left coast who otherwise claim to abhor guns, etc (yet make livings from them), The Grass Harp is a beacon of gentility and literary fiction of the first magnitude. At least in 1995, my respects to their craft--a posteriori!

With an amazing cast this movie couldn't go wrong. Good acting, actually, great acting, and that's what keep me glued to the set, but for me, something was missing. I didn't connect with the story, and I know that's what brought these great actors together. I'm sorry, but I think this going against the grain thing is wearing thin. Why didn't they just leave town and sell the medicine on their own? I guess I'm too ignorant to understand the symbolism of the tree fort. If I had been a towns-person in this film I wouldn't be on the side of crabby sister Sissy, trying to chase them out of the tree, but I would be someone sitting at home saying, "why in the hell are they up there?" I gave it a 6.

This was a sweet movie which tells yet another slant of the autobiographical notes of Truman Capote's life, some of which is reminiscent of his novel "Other Voices, Other Rooms." In both works, there are women raising a young, delicate boy (the young Truman, no doubt), young girls interested in the boy who only has a passing curiosity about them, and homosexual men (the barber in this movie, honey) who color the Southern landscape with just another shade of differentness. "Love is a chain", and Capote seems always to be searching for the ties of that chain and whether, in the end, his life could have a brighter less melodramatic tone which could have spared him so much of the sadness his works and his real life seem to reflect as he searched for love and acceptance on the fringes of society and never seemed to really have found it.
