Other Voices Other Rooms

1997 · 94 min

A humid, dreamlike Southern gothic mood piece that drifts slowly through memory and unease, rewarding patience more than momentum.

Starring
Lothaire Bluteau, Anna Thomson, David Speck
Overview
Truman Capote's semi-autobiographical first novel about coming of age in the Deep South during the 1930s centers on 13-year-old Joel Sansom (David Speck), who reunites with his estranged father at the family's shabby plantation, where he must contend with his father's feisty mistress and a strange cousin. Against this less-than-ideal backdrop, Joel slowly matures into an upstanding young man.
