This is an excellent family movie well worth keeping in the family dvd file for future generations.Friendly Persuasion speaks well to integrity, family commitment and good clean humor.
Rating:  - Wholesome entertainment.
This movie touches on some very thought provoking issues, but it handles it very well. I like the older movies anyway, and this is a very good one. It mixes serious, thought provoking issues with wonderful family humor preformed by really good actors.

Rating: - Friendly Persuasion
I think this old movie has gathered a somewhat timeless quality. It still is enjoyable to watch,
it deals with spirituality and humanity, and it shows that the values of then are still with us today.
Rating: - Friendly persuasion DVD Review
Another excellent film by director William Wyler.My only negative remark is Dimitri Tiomkin's overall soap-operatic score--e.g., although the theme vocal song is delightful, I don't think it fits a movie set in the 1860s rural America.
