This movie was actually known under two names, Sometimes a Great Notion, and Never Give an Inch. This is a movie of a Family of "MEN" back when that word meant something. These where not guys in touch with their "Feminine side". A family owned logging company that is bound to their word to deliver their logs/at odds with their neighbors who are "on strike" with the town logging company. The senery in the movie is outstanding, and the view of "strong family" can't help but make you remember "the day". Dad's take your son to see this movie, and when Paul Newman raises Henry Fonda's hand in triumph at the end of the movie, he will have a better knowledge of what being a man is all about.
I bought this movie for the chain saw scenes (recommended by others at Arborist Site). I really liked the classic 70's look and feel to the movie. Probably a little lacking in real movie terms but overall a movie I could watch again. Unfortunately the copy I bought has some "technical issues" near the end making it difficult to watch.
it was a great movie. If you have read the book, it didnt come close to it, mainly it just focused on a very small part of it. However, the part it did portray was well done, especially for paul newmans directorial debut. Though, if you loved the book, I would recommend not seeing the movie.
my nephew has been looking for this movie for a long time and when i saw it on ebay i bought it for him for a christmas present. it will be a surprise, he hasn't seen it yet. but i am sure he will just love it.my only dilike is that i don't know if it is viewable.
