This movie sure starts out intense, not introducing any characters but rather showing us the fight against the river flooding the farm. Unfortunately from there on out, it is a bit of a mixed bag. Sometimes it's dragging on, sometimes it displays relationships and hardships in a very captivating way. To me it was always trying to find its pace but not quite getting there. I love John Williams as a composer but at times I wasn't entirely on board with the overly cheerful or dramatic score here.
