About this item
Product Description
Off the coast of Maine, families have lived and worked the sea for generations. Everyone knows each other. Birthright is akin to law and men inherit their fishing territories. Eben Cole (Thomas Hildreth) continues his family s legacy of harvesting lobsters, but after causing a tragic accident at sea, Eben loses everything. After serving five years in prison he returns determined to win back the way of life he fought so hard to protect. Only now he is an outcast, his ex-wife Cheryl (Amy Jo Johnson) wants nothing to do with him and fisherman see him as a harbinger of bad luck. Only Popper (Philip Baker Hall), an old, weathered and gruff fisherman gives Eben a chance to become an Islander again...
Review
An effective and graceful portrait of courage...One of Philip Baker Hall s finest moments marked by beautiful cinematogrpahy. An intelligent and compelling drama. --Kirk Honeycutt, Hollywood Reporter
Islander is an exemplary, unembellished portrayal of an ever fascinating and little known American Community. Markedly superior to current Hollywood fare... Beautifully cast and well-scripted... photography that is breathtaking --James Verniere, Boston Herald
A noble entry into the real world of timeless and truly independent American cinema..The resulting captured reality is vividly successful for its verite quality and documentary like texture...A Powerfully atmospheric sense of place engulfs Islander --Seattle Times
