T. Theopholis North (Anthony Edwards) is an aspiring adventurer making do as a tutor and reader to the upper-crust in 1920s Newport, Rhode Island, in Danny Huston's enchanting if rough-edged adaptation of Thornton Wilder's comic novel. Equally at home with the rich (Robert Mitchum's blustery but big-hearted philosopher millionaire) and the poor (butler and all-around-town character Harry Dean Stanton), the young man with an electric personality (literally) becomes a liberator, a matchmaker, a reluctant faith healer, and a tonic for a community in the thrall of charlatans. Huston, son of the great John Huston (who helped script the film), is not a deft filmmaker, but he has a welcoming warmth and a contagious affection for his colorful characters. If his cast (which includes Lauren Bacall, Mary Stuart Masterson, and Anjelica Huston, Danny's sister) tends to overplay their parts, it's in the genial spirit of this lighthearted lark. --Sean Axmaker

This is a wonderful, feel good movie. It, of course, has some "OMG, how can this be happening moments", too. It's set in a beautiful area and is very well done with lots of easy to recognize stars.

What a movie !!!! What a cast !!!! Anthony Edwards, Robert Mithchum, Mary Kay Place, Anjelica Huston, Harry Dean Stanton, Lauren Bacall and so many more..... What a great idea to have a novie that says to kids.....you can try something out once,but it may not work. If it does great but always be on the lookout for things not to work. It was great.

Based on Thornton Wilder's novel THEOPHILUS NORTH, this is, in its own quiet way, a magical picture. It's about a young college man who gives off electrical charges from his body (an old parlor trick); he comes to Newport one season early in the 20th century and begins to transform people. There is an exuberance and optimism that rub off on these stuffy summer people, and they begin to come to life in a way they've never experienced before. And, of course, there are those electrical charges, which ... Read More

With Anthony Edwerds as Mr. North, Robert Mitchum as James Bosworth, Lauren Bacall as Amilia Crinston and Anjelica Huston as Persis Bosworth-Tennyson you realy can't go rong. A great movie, the only thing that kept it from the fifth star is how Persis ran of with Mr. North almost at first glance. It's basicly about this guy, Mr. North, and what he does with the electricty he stores in his body. It is also about who hates him because of it. With great acting by Robert Mitchum, Lauren Bacall and Anjelica ... Read More

Just got the DVD, and forgot how wonderfully entertaining this film really is. Danny Huston's directorial debut was met with mixed reaction, but this film never fails to entertain. It's simple, sweet and a bit profound (based on Thornton Wilder) and the attention to 1920's period detail is intact. The most fun thing is the exemplary ensemble cast that Mr. Huston assembled (no doubt with help from father, John, who was co-writer). Anjelica Huston, Mary Stuart Masterson, Tammy Grimes, Virginia Madsen, Harry ... Read More
