ALL THE WINTERS THAT HAVE BEEN (1997)
STARS: Richard Chamberlain, Karen Allen, Hal Holbrook.
DIRECTOR: Lamont Johnson. DURATION: 91 mins.
SYNOPSIS: A wildlife conservationist scuppers his chances of settling down with the love of his life when he's forced to arrest her brother. Twenty years later the long-lost lovers are thrown back together by fate - and it isn't until then that he learns he fathered her child.
RC PLAYS: Dane Corvin.
This is one of the few truly good projects of RC's later career, with the man himself back where his fans like to see him - as a romantic lead.
The story is excellent (as RC said on a regional TV show, it's a film with an adult love story, not just about "horny teenagers") and the locations breath-taking, but it's the playing of Chamberlain and Hal Holbrook (superbly cranky as Richard's uncle, despite being in real life only a few years older than his co-star) which really carries it through.
Karen Allen, so good in Raiders of the Lost Ark and Starman back in the early 1980s, looks a little lost, but luckily for her the rest of the cast easily make up for it.
