5.0 out of 5 stars Loved it..., May 26, 2009

This review is from: Harry & Son [VHS] (VHS Tape)

it's all about father and son relationship. I watched it simply because I love both, Paul Newman and Robby Benson but I was totally captured by the story, even if it started a little slowly at times. Benson plays his role SUPERBLY - he is a free spirit, true to himself and exuberant young guy who loves his father (Newman)to death and tries his best to please and cheer him and finally, towards the end of the film, succeeds with the father beginning to recognize his son's talent and human qualities and showing appreciation to his son. It is a slice of life, wonderfully played by actors I love. I am adding this DVD to my collection.

This is a great movie. Paul Newman is always refreshing to watch. He was such a credible actor. I loved this movie.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very underrated movie, November 27, 2011

This review is from: Harry And Son ( Harry & Son ) [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.0 Import - Australia ] (DVD)

I first saw this movie about 35 years ago, loved it then, and love it now. This is a highly underrated performance in the Paul Newman canon. Newman and Joane Woodward are excellent in the roles of old friends seguing into a loving relationship as a result of much prodding (meddling?) by Robby Benson, who likewise is outstanding in his role as Newman's independent thinking, but immature son. Great in supporting roles are Morgan Freeman, Ossie Davis, and Ellen Barkin who round out an excellent cast. I have noted that others did not neccessarily care for the story line, but conversely I found the duel coming of age stories of father and son true to life, with an excellent mixture of pain and humor. If you just want a feel good movie without the intrusion of death and a lived happily ever after ending, then this may not be the flick for you, however if you value a well crafted story that emphasizes important life lessons with a somewhat subtle delivery, this one will not disapoint.
