I saw `Cavedweller' at the Tribeca Film Festival. I haven't read the book, but this movie is only a small part of the book.
Kyra Sedgwick once again proves herself to be a very versatile actress, she's amazing in this movie as her character struggles with her emotions. All three daughters do a wonderful job, but Regan Arnold stands out as the fish-out-of-water youngest daughter, moved suddenly from L.A. to small-town Georgia. Aidan Quinn is very strong in a rather ugly role. Kevin Bacon has a bit part but is wonderful, as always. Jill Scott, in what I believe is her acting debut, is wonderful and provides some needed light-hearted moments in the midst of all the heavy drama. Jackie Burroughs is terrific as the tough-as-nails grandmother.
If you want to watch a romantic comedy, then this movie is not the one for you. If you want to watch a solid drama with excellent writing and acting, this movie will leave you more than satisfied.

This drama has everything you could want: action, beautiful outdoor scenery, romance, adult and teen interaction, and plenty of realism. The show appeals to all ages, even though the majority of the cast are teenagers. Joe Lando and Anne Marie Loder play the adult counselors in the show, they do tremendous jobs. Hayden Christensen, A.J. Cook, and Jewel Staite really stand out among the teen actors.
I highly recommend this drama!!

This movie was not funny, as the previews might lead one to believe, but much more intense. The acting was superb. I do wish Vanessa Redgrave had a bit of a larger role, and that the movie would have gotten more into Susanna's thoughts and why she did what she did. But overall, this was a very good movie that made me think about craziness and how I'd react in that situation.
