About this product

Product Information

Julianne Moore returns to FAR FROM HEAVEN territory in THE PRIZE WINNER OF DEFIANCE, OHIO, which springs from the pages of Terry Ryan's memoir of the same name. Playing 1950s housewife Evelyn Ryan, who struggles to raise 10 kids while dealing with an alcoholic husband, Moore brings director Jane Anderson's film to life with another moving performance to add to her résumé. Evelyn's husband, Kelly (Woody Harrelson), works at the local factory but has sunk the family into financial trouble with his dangerously boozy habits. Struggling with her husband's drinking and the stress of raising so many children, Evelyn tries her luck in some jingle-writing contests. Writing rhyming couplets for companies like Dr. Pepper and Maidenform bras, the beleaguered housewife is surprisingly successful, and manages to tip the family's finances back into good health. Anderson peppers the action with short direct-to-camera monologues from Evelyn, which help to explain the idiosyncrasies of the competitions and also highlight her steely determination to pull her family through the hard times. But Kelly can't accept his wife's position as the major breadwinner of the family, and his violent, alcohol-fueled outbursts put an enormous strain on their relationship. Moore shines throughout the movie, giving a convincing performance as a strong woman who always puts her family's happiness before her own. As a first feature film, THE PRIZE WINNER OF DEFIANCE, OHIO, is a strong debut from Jane Anderson, who gained Emmy nominations for her HBO show NORMAL, which she wrote and directed; she also wrote the screenplay for this movie, faithfully molding Terry Ryan's words into a film that tugs heavily at the heart strings.

    Delivered on time with adequate protection in the packaging. The description did note some edge wear of the ink stamp, but I felt looking back that the pictures didn't do very well to highlight the extent of the stamp fading, maybe due to lighting/glare. While I might have selected a different disc with a bit less ink wear if I'd looked more carefully at the picture, the seller accurately represented the condition and I am happy with the purchase for the price.

    Product matched the description perfectly. Packaged well for shipping. Appearance matches the decription as used, but it is actually near mint. Quality product. Good value. Tested working so its functional condition is perfect. Would work with seller again, very happy with purchase and process.

    The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio is a great movie

    The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio is a great movie! We enjoyed it very much and was surprised that it actually is based on a true story. Those are always the best kind of movie in my opinion. Too bad they don't do that type of thing anymore. It's not really free if you have to pay for shipping and all.

  • A Heart warming, humbling movie!

    True movies are always better than Hollywood glam. Julianne Moore is cast perfectly as a battered wife, who saves the families budget by writing Jingles. The family as a whole, nestles together to help their mom accomplish her dream! Woody Harrelson, plays a great part, with anger and comedy throughout the movie. I loved this movie so much that I purchased it to help me through hard times.

  • As Good As The Book

    Just read the book. Never knew it was actually made into a movie. Somewhere I thought I saw the word "comedy" associated with it. While there were funny moments in it, I thought the movie had an underlying theme of sadness. I definitely think you'll like the movie. I'd definitely recommend it.

  • Defiance, Ohio film

    I had seen this movie on a pay channel. Wanted it on DVD for my own collection; it’s THAT GOOD but extremely difficult to find. Julienne Moore is fantastic, as is the story. Thanks so much for having it!
