Professional Reviews

| : |
(12/25/1998, p.C16, Kevin Thomas): "...Unflinchingly, DOWN IN THE DELTA goes straight to the heart....The film, appropriately traditional in style itself, comes full circle in a rich, substantial way that is all the more gratifying..." |

| Details: |
A city girl gets shipped off to stay with her family in the Mississippi Delta by her mother in order to convalesce from her drug addiction. While there, she works alongside her grandfather at the family restaurant and learns about the trials and adventures of previous generations of her family dating back to their time in slavery before the Civil War. A touching family drama and the directorial debut of poet Angelou. |
