Editorial DVD Review

[Top]

With the makings of a classic, Disneys Tuck Everlasting is loosely but respectfully adapted from Natalie Babbitts beloved childrens book. This appealing fable focuses on the timeless Tuck family, blessed, & cursed, with immortality after drinking from a magical spring. Hiding their secret over passing decades, they are discovered in 1914 by Winnie , the only daughter of stern, upper-crust socialites, who encounters the life-affirming Jesse Tuck & grows enchanted with his family while her parents fear shes been kidnapped. The films teenage romance is invented , but its charmingly appropriate, & Ben Kingsley is perfect as a menacing man of mystery. Scoring a solid follow-up to his equally enjoyable My Dog Skip, director Jay Russell turns Tuck Everlasting into a magical plea for living life to its fullest. ,
