The Simple Life of Noah Dearborn

What a deeply touching and truly beautiful story. First of all, Sidney Poitier — I could stop there!? But, add Dianne Wiest and Mary-Louise Parker, each with their very own, unique connection to the titular character. A heart-wrenching, soul-moving story about good vs. evil… about content of character vs. greed. I give this movie my VERY HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION — and all the stars I could give it… I only wish I could give it more!!

I enjoyed it.

This is the most delightful movie I've ever encountered. Imagine being alongside acting great Sydney Poiter. I don't know if this was the last movie he made before his death, but he was one of the greats to be sure.This movie is about small-town charm and neighbors who care for one another.Perfectly beautiful!

As described. Played perfect.Poitier was such a great actor.He will always live on. It's like every movie he did was written especially for him. R.I.P.

A must watch

Great wholesome entertainment. No satin involvement.

The last movie I believe, of Sidney Poitier is basically his own story to look and be the amazing human that he is/ was. To do such a good acting at his age is basically the theme of the movie itself, to work and look so young and so inspiring to others. This man is an icon of the cinema and of human kind and his integrity is what is seen throughout this movie. The board of psychs with a court order is weird. I didn't think this is possible but human greed can go a long way. That's why this movie is inspiring: human integrity and authenticity can also go a long. The movie depicts the two extremes of integrity vs greed. Medically speaking, I believe the movie is trying to lead us towards PTSD? or even mild autism? ( lack of touch)? Not sure what they are trying to say about that and it does not matter. The movie is Sidney Poitier, entirely :-). ETA: It was not his last movie, as it was filmed in 1999.

Exceptionally good movie. Highly recommend !

Llegó en muy buen estado y en la fecha prevista, sin embargo, el audio de la película no estaba en español cuando en la descripción del producto sí que indicaba que estaba este idioma. Reclamé a la empresa y se disculparon y me devolvieron el dinero sin inconvenientes.

Très bon film. Dommage qu'il n'y a que la version anglaise et non française.

Wenn ich mir in einem deutschsprachigen Online-Shop eine DVD erstelle, dann erwarte ich, dass ich sie mit meinem hier gekauften DVD-Player abspielen kann.

J'avais déjà vu le film, mais j'ai pris plaisir à le revoir.C'est une très belle histoire, qui nous donne une sacrée leçon de vie.A voir absolument !

I know there have been good reviews written about this story, but I felt I'd like to add a bit. The actors, Sidney Poitier, Mary-Louise Parker and Dianne West give a great performance, as always. Noah is persevering in defending his way of life, and his property. Ruthless real estate developers are equally determined to wear him down and change his mind. Who wins? Watch the movie and find out. I believe this story is so endearing to us because there's still something in most of us, especially those of us who have lived awhile, that longs to return to the simple and uncomplicated life that Noah is living. We appreciate modern technology and advantages, but at the same time we realize we have forfeited something precious that is becoming rare in our society. Take a little trip into meaningful living. Watch this movie.
