oqawa This movie lived with me for weeks. It's very strong, very intense and will make you live the whole story in your imagination, I was looking at the reviews and I'm wondering why such a great masterpiece is underrated... it deserves more votes here, it deserves to be watched and the way the main actor tells the story is fantastic.
wabby-30281 If you're ever depressed, and think your life is crap, watch this movie. You'll see how bad things could be.
lorraineesimpson Was a bit hesitant about watching this as the Netflix write up didn't promote it that well but I'm glad I did. This is essentially a moral tale about your sins catching up with you. Beautifully shot and perfectly evocative of the time, the tension is steadily built and you know it's not going to end well for anyone involved.Thomas Jane gives a great performance as the main character. His accent takes a bit of adjusting to and I found it a bit distracting at the start but once I got into it it was fine.Well worth a watch.
joostkrijnmollen The movie 1922 - based on the Stephen King novella with the same name - starts of promising. We are shown a great field with corn, belonging to our main character Wilfred James and his wife Arlette, who inherited the land from her deceased father. Although the two have some problems concerning their marriage, the sheer amount of corn just makes more then up for it. The farmer and his wife posses corn as far as the eye can see. But after all that corn is harvested before the incoming winter, we don't see that corn ever again. I guess one could draw a parralel between the literal decline of the amount of corn - the one vegetable Wilfred loves so much he even kills his wife to prevend her from selling the land on which the corn resides - and the mental decline of Wilfred and the physical decline of the estate as the movie progresses along after Wilfred's sin, but who cares. I just wanna see more corn. I rate this movie six out of ten pieces of corn: not enough corn. Gosh darn I just love corn so much.
