- Beautiful! Beautiful! Beautiful!
This is one of my all-time favourites since I watched this movie more than 20 years ago. I recently found this movie DVD from a public library and was so excited that I can watch it again now! Even it is my second time to watch this movie, I am still deeply moved by it!

The story of this movie took place in the rural Texas when racial discrimination was still a very serious social issue. Sally Fields is the widow Edna whose husband, a sheriff, was shot while on duty by a Black teenager. ... Read More

- Watch it all the way through for the ending
This is a fine picture - nicely acted, beautifully filmed. If you watch it for no other reason, though, please see it all the way through (don't jump ahead) just for the final scene.

- Places in the Heart, a wonderful movie
This movie is a must see for the whole family. I saw it years ago, but never with the family. When I saw the DVD I new it was one to watch on a family Sunday afternoon. We all loved it. Sally Field is a really good actress and she shines in this. And Danny Glover is just fantastic. This is one movie you must watch for pure entertainment with fine acting from everyone.

- I know this sounds corny but the movie really did win a special place in my heart
PLACES IN THE HEART is an excellent movie that takes place in 1930's rural Texas. The movie starts sadly with the tragic death of a sheriff who is also a husband and father. Sally Fields is his widow, Edna, who is left to deal with an almost Biblical plague of difficulties and setbacks. Fields' acting is great as she transforms from a woman who did not even know her husband's salary to one who can negotiate a deal with an unscrupulous cotton gin owner. Danny Glover shows his acting skills as Mose a ... Read More

- One of the best American films of the eighties
With storytelling of Dickensian authority, brilliant casting matched with excellent performances including the work of the two children, this film remains a very strong candidate as one of the best American movies of the 1980's. The central story follows the story of two sisters in parallel - one loses her husband through an accident in the line of duty, the other (nearly) loses her husband through his infidelity. The widow overcomes her loss through faith in her ability to prevail, through ignoring ... Read More
