Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Highly Entertaining Civil War Soap Opera
This is what I especially love about DVDS, the chance to see something that will likely never play on a television channel again. 1980's BEULAH LAND was a three-part mini series running just over four and a half hours. It's not perfect but it is highly entertaining and very well-acted. The program spans a period of over 30 years, from decades before the Civil War to the War to it's aftermath. BEULAH LAND stars Lesley Ann Warren who marries her childhood crush and eventually becomes mistress (the ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - stereotypes
Personally, I was disappointed. I won't even comment on the fact that the primary actors scarcely age 5 minutes over a period of 25 years. More important is the fact that the acting is uneven and many of the 'southern' accents syrupy and forced. I also thought that the film dragged in many places. Also, quite unforunately, the story and sets parallel 'Gone with the Wind'. The setting is even in Georgia and we see virtually the same fires, crippled soldiers and escaping civilians. There's even ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A GOOD STORY OF THE OLD SOUTH
If you like Civil War-era stories and whether or not you read the three books, I think you should enjoy this production. The characters, costumes, settings are all very true to the periods.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I've Enjoyed BEULAH LAND for many years.
I've read Lonny Coleman's BEULAH LAND series of three books three times. The first time in high schoo., again as a young adult, and for the third time just last week. I saw the movie when it came out as a mini series a long time ago. Today I finished the movie again. I found the movie follows the books closer than most movies do.

True, it's no GONE WITH THE WIND, it's better. I can relate better to Sarah Kindrick than I can to Scarlett O'Hara. BEULAH LAND is a heartwarming saga that ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - great present for my mother
I'm really not into these movies, but my mother is and she was very excited to get it.
