Loved it and the movie followed the book closely.
The movie completely eliminated the title character.
@Sally Hmm, I did read it a long time ago and watched the movie, as well. I thought Tom Wingo was the main character and remember his portrayal by Nick Nolte.
@Janet Tom was the main character, but their older brother was the actual prince of tides, and he wasn’t in the movie.
Ah…good memory!
Absolutely!

Thanks for the comments…as an update, I did download it and it was the best $2.99 I’ve ever spent. My only mistake part way through was watching a trailer of the movie. Once I saw Barbara Streisand in the role of the psychiatrist I could not get her image out of my mind when reading. She is not how I picture that character.
I loved that book and I was so mad when I found out she owned the movie and had cast herself in that role. In the book the psychiatrist is described as a drop dead gorgeous brunette! She spoiled that movie for me. And I like her usually.
I like her too but she didn’t fit the description. Artistic license I guess.
She is a good actress and I guess I can’t blame her for wanting to do a film with Nick Nolte.
Definitely!!! Its better than the movie and the movie is great
Wonderful book.
Yes!
absolutely!
A favorite at any price. Have read and reread it so many times! Made me love Pat Conroy!?
