Description:
Romance-Drama set in a small Southern town at the turn of the century. The romance is between an independent woman from the North who marries the local general-store owner.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Cold Sassy is beautiful!
A flawless scrpit, award winning actors, what else is there to say. Cold Sassy is a beautiful, touching story of love and loss. One of my favorites that I can pass down generations.
Rating:  - VHS Tape
The movie is very good, interesting and entertaining. The original needs to be placed on a DVD. The tape was poor quality
Rating: - A MODERATELY ENTERTAINING FILM...
This is a pleasant little Hallmark Hall of Fame film based upon the book of the same name by Olive Ann Burns. It a film that takes place in a very small, sleepy southern town around the turn of the century where an elderly gentleman, a Mr. Blakeslee (Richard Widmark), runs a general store in which he employs a very attractive, middle-aged milliner with the unlikely name of Miss Love Simpson.

Rating: - Not bad, fairly entertaining
Dunaway produced this one herself after a string of lousy flops that had no artistic value at all, and I mean a loooong string of them. Cold Sassy Tree isn't too bad. It was made for cable. It has a fairly tight script and a good cast. She and Wildmark fall in love in a small town in the South. He is an old widower, she is either a widow or a spinster, I cannot remember which. His family disapproves. They forge ahead with their love and at the end, everyone is happy. This is post-face work ... Read More
Rating: - Read The Book!
This is a wonderful novel. It is one of my favorites, so I was expecting great things from this video. I don't know why, because, with the exception of To Kill a Mockingbird, the movie never measures up to the novel. This one is even worse than usual. The characters are very poorly developed, the story has been changed somewhat--and not for the better. It has none of the warmth and humor of the book. I was disgusted with my choice and wish I had the money back!
