Readers of John Berendt's bestselling novel were bound to be at least somewhat disappointed by this big-screen adaptation, but despite mixed reaction from critics and audiences, there's still plenty to admire about director Clint Eastwood's take on the material. Readers will surely miss the rich atmosphere and societal detail that Berendt brought to his 'Savannah story,' and the movie can only scratch the surface of Georgian history, tradition, and wealthy decadence underlying Berendt's fact-based murder mystery. Still, Eastwood maintains an assured focus on the wonderful eccentrics of Savannah, most notably a gay Savannah antiques dealer (superbly played by Kevin Spacey), who may or may not have killed his friend and alleged lover (Jude Law). John Cusack plays the Town & Country journalist who arrives in Savannah to find much more than he bargained for--including the city's legendary drag queen Lady Chablis (playing 'herself')--and John Lee Hancock's smoothly adapted screenplay succeeds in bringing Berendt's characters vividly to life with plenty of flavorful dialogue. In similar fashion to Warner's acclaimed DVD of L.A. Confidential, this classy DVD includes a behind-the-scenes documentary titled The Real People in the Garden and an interactive map tour of Savannah and its most celebrated (or notorious) citizens. The original theatrical trailer is also included. --Jeff Shannon

Rating:  - Just fabulous!
I have only positive things to say about this movie.All the performances were sublimeand if you are aKevin Spacey fan, you will love it.In my opinions, he gave one of his best performances in this movie. It's got it's funny parts and serious parts and makes the greatest combination for a fantastic movie.
Rating:  - Clint Could have done better
The book was amazing in its grasp onto the culture, the way the charactors play out so on and so fourth. The movie though seemed to race through the book...take the time to make the movie as good as the book if it takes an extra hour or two of movie then do it...don't make a rushed adaptation doesn't fly...now mind you the movie is something to watch and no wheres near as bad as Stephen King's movie adaptation of Tommyknockers...but it could have been much better
Rating: - Loves It!
Always was interested in this story and have seen it on tv many times.I live in Savannah and am late getting it on DVD.....lol
Rating: - Real characters
If you didn't know it, you'd think that this was a made up story.However, it is based on a true story and real characters that live and/or work in Savannah.You will laugh, you'll love the music, and you'll enjoy the true story it is based on.Thank you Mr. Eastwood.
