I found Catherine's performance to be exceptional and buoyed this film from start to finish. There is a brassiness and earthiness to her that worked well within the context of the small town setting. The supporting actors were strong enough in their own right to be memorable and the performances by the other townspeople felt super authentic and believable. There is a lot of charm to this movie and although it is a retelling of a true story it feels real in its own right. I was moved by the emotional speeches presented in the film and felt they retold this story in a way that was compelling and did it justice at the same time.

Story of susette kelo, paramedic, who fights to keep her house, in new london connecticut. The governor and a local businessswoman want to redevelop part of the town. Near a sewage plant. They'll need to take land by eminent domain, but the homeowners don't want to sell. Get ready for a fight! Jeanne tripplehorn is charlotte, who represents the development group. They aren't using eminent domain to put up a public building... they are using the land to build a pharmaceutical plant. Charlotte is still trying to sweet talk the owners when the dirty tricks start, to get the stubborn owners out of their homes. Off to court! Directed by courtney balaker. Based on the book by jeff benedict. Good stuff! Good summary of what actually happened to everyone and the land itself, after ten years.

Great story told well by the director, actors and everyone else involved! Thank you for making this film!

I watched today and it broke my heart. Then I looked some things up.... What they didn't say in the movie, she suggested her house be moved. They refused. After all of it, the house was moved, not demolished. I think it was 100 years old before all this even started and had been moved from another location to where it was when all of this happened. Little Pink House. Nothing was ever built on the land where the 15 house neighborhood was destroyed.

Decent enough movie and yes, a film that leaves you feeling for her as seen by the same type of response in the reviews, like "The highest court in the land basically said it was fine for government to seize the private property of Party A and give it to Party B" Bet if the net was around late 1800's the Native Americans would write similar reviews like the ones here as they have being doing that since then and acts that show why you get on with you're former masters the english so well.

This film tells the story of a woman who fights hard against the city government taking her home for development by a private corporation. This is a poignant story, and it drives me to tears. I admire the fighters' dedication to fight for their homes. It is engaging and captivating.
