The Gift (2000) Movie Review [Dead End Follies]
In the now defunct era of video rental stores, a friend of mine had this rule of thumb: ''Never rent a comedy if the cover background is white. It's going to rip off an already mediocre comedy.'' After putting my friend's rule to the test, I found out it was usually accurate. Same thing could be said about the DVD covers with several faces floating on a dark cover. They're usually cheap, John Grisham-inspired judiciary thrillers. Stupid (yet accurate) rules of thumb may explain why I ignored THE GIFT for 13 long, freakin' years. Its bland and uninspired packaging is in no way a reflection of this beautiful southern gothic tale. Don't let father time win against this hidden gem. It is good enough to deserve immortality.
