"Feast of July"

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

This 1995 Merchant Ivory film takes what could have been a good stoty and plods it down with uninteresting characters we really don't care about. In 19th century rural England a young woman self delivers a a stillborn ilegitimate baby and then somehow staggers to a nearby village where she is taken in by a family. The group consists of the mother and father and three grown sons, a soldier, a cobbler, and a somewhat slow youngest son. Of course the lads become smitten with her and rivalries develop. Along the way she runs into the man who impregnayed her and lied to her and determines that he is doing the same thing to another young thing. The heroine accepts the proposal of the youngest son to the surprose of the family (and us). In the end the son and the liar tilt but by then we just don't care.
