starstarstarstar
Adapted from a slim book that won the 1970 Newbery Medal Award for children's literature, this heartbreaking and intelligent film is one of the best examples of a "family film" ever made, and a triumph for all involved. Paul Winfield and Cicely Tyson star as Depression-era sharecroppers raising their three children and their dog, Sounder, as best they can in rural Louisiana. Read the complete review for Sounder
