Down In The Delta

Written By David Russell

Down in the delta is a movie with Alfie Woodward, and Wesley Snipes and Esther Rolle.  It is one of the most boring movies I have ever sat through. It is about a disfunctional Mississippi family and their pet candleabra.  Liberace would have loved this movie.  The daughter is a drunk and her daughter is retarted.  Esther Rolle is an alzhiemers patient and the father owns a chicken restaraunt.  He works for chicken feed.  The little boy wants a gun and his mother is very upset,  The chicken company told the workers to get plucked and threatens to close the plant down The mother Pawns Nathan (candleabra) and sends her daughter down to Mississippi for rheabilitation.  Esther doesnt know which end is up and ends up in a hospital.  This is a Merimax film The second disaster ive seen in a week from them.  Dont even watch this on HBO  No stars.    The film has a happy ending. and Nathan gets out of the pawn shop and they all lived happily ever after,
