Customer Reviews: Great one-liners July 19, 2009 A. D. Wilson (London) Joan Didion, who co-wrote the screenplay with her husband, John Gregory Dunne, also wrote one of the best ever collections of American essays - Slouching Towards Bethlehem, with the fabulous Some Dreamers of the Golden Dream starkly exposing the hollowness in aspects of American society. True Confessions comes close to capturing the same issues, even though it is based on Dunne's novel. br / br /Great acting from De Niro, Duvall, Durning and others keeps the movie taut till the end. Dan Hedeya, although not given headline billing, excells adding a salacious edge and he is given some great on-liners that linger long after the film is over. In fact, the script is littered with great quips and dialogue. br / br /A 1981 film that is well worth watching. br / br / A rare suspense movie June 5, 2009 Hans Martens (Denmark) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful True Confessions is a film about deceit, loyalty and the shadow side of men. The side of us, that we often will not acknowledge, and if we finally do - it hurts. But the hurt can be overcome, byt humble obedience and by following an inner voice, which is a personal road to our rewal selfs. br /The film shows in its own humble way, by walking its talk, so to speak, and by excellent acting from an impressive number of star actors, how it is not our acts, good or bad that judges us, but rather the way we either accept or do not accept our darker sides. br / br /This is a superb film, if you take your time to really watch it. Dull and unrewarding April 25, 2006 Honesty (UK) 2 out of 19 found this review helpful Even these two powerful actors couldn't save this dull and unrewarding script.
