Where the Heart Is Storyline
Stewart McBain (Coleman) is a real-estate mogul who spends his living blowing up old buildings to make room to erect new buildings. All goes as planned for a new subdivision, until a group of protesters object to the destruction of one lonely, ugly building, called the Dutch House. Typically, the media is sent to the scene of the protest, and McBain appears on TV in a bad way. His children – Daphne (Thurman), Chloe (Amis), and Jimmy (Hewlett) – ridicule him for appearing on TV, and as a reward for their remarks, he drops them off at the Dutch House with $750 apiece, and tells them they’re on their own. They must find jobs if they expect to make money to stay warm. McBain and his wife Jean watch from afar as their children adapt to their new lifestyle, meeting new friends, and inviting others into their new home, including a decrepit bum.

Where the Heart Is Movie Reviews
A heartwarming masterpiece.
Pity the poor reviewer who disliked / didn’t understand this wonderful film. What a sad life he must lead!
This movie has more to say about life and relationships than most I’ve ever seen, yet it’s not dark or preachy like the “ordinary people” type of film. It is mostly humorous, though not technically a comedy.
The whole thing feels a little like a fantasy, perhaps Shakespear’s “Midsummer Nights’ Dream.” Beautiful, intelligent women abound, with wonderful cinematography and a non-insulting screenplay that doesn’t miss a beat.
I look forward to seeing it every time this film is re-run on cable. It’s like re-reading a favorite, treasured book.
Superb, Unique little gem
This movie is great–especially if you enjoy visual arts. The scenery that the two daughters paint and photograph are beautiful. The story is also both funny and poignant at times.
People who like European films and “art movies” will like this movie. This is truly an art movie–it actually has a lot of art in it. Go rent it.
Not bad, could have been much better
This movie has a lot to recommend it. The paintings, the music, and David Hewlett’s naked butt are all gorgeous! The plot, a story of redemption, forgiveness, and courage in the face of adversity is also very interesting and touching — and it’s not predictable, which is saying quite a lot about a movie in this day and age. But, the acting is mediocre, the direction is confusing, and the script is just odd. It often felt like it was trying to be a parody, but I never figured out what it was trying to be parody *of*. And if it’s not a parody, well, it remains a movie with great potential that it didn’t live up to.
