When doctor Jerry Lovell (Liam Neeson, Oscar - nominee for "Schindler's List") discovers a young woman living alone in the backwoods of North Carolina, he is intrigued by her erratic behavior and unique pattern of speech. Together with a psychologist (Natasha Richardson), Lovell determines to pierce Nell's private world and protect her from the courts - and a life of scientific study. In a race against time and a system bent on shattering her spirit, he finds that the woman whose way of life he has sought to protect, has transformed his own forever.

Customer Rating:      Summary: "Nell," a classic which needs to be viewed by all. Comment: "Nell" is a movie that all should watch at some time. It shows the reasons why we fear the unknown and how we should accept all that we come into contact with. The acting is superb and makes each a believer in tolerance for the humanity in our lives.
Customer Rating:      Summary: nell Comment: I enjoyed watching Nell again every bit as much as I enjoyed it the first time. Still emotionally moving!!! Jodi Foster was great!!!
Customer Rating:      Summary: LOL Comment: I give this movie four stars because it is so unintentionally hilarious.
Jodie foster plays the daughter of an Appalachian stroke victim that fills her day running around in the woods, communing with nature, and playing dress-up with her dead sister's remains. When her mother finally kicks the bucket, two protagonists are fascinated buy her mangled tard-speak and child-like innocence. The friendly neighborhood psychologist wants to observe her in a lab while the gentle country doctor wants to go all Gorillas in the Mist and observe her bathing in her own filth in the woods. The story ends with Nell making a 'heartfelt' speech (done entirely in Hutese) that convinces the judge to release her back into the wild as to spare the towns folk from her paint-chip eating ways. It closes with Nell having a picnic, playing ring around the rosie with a little girl, a dead raccoon (named UUURGH GO BAH-GNNN!!), and her twin sister's femur.
The movie loses a star because Jodie Foster gets naked D:
Customer Rating:      Summary: A great movie with an unforgettable performance Comment: The first thing that impressed me most in this movie is the unforgettable performance by Jodie Foster. If you want to know what "putting a soul into the role" means, that's the exact case. She is almost always impressive, but this is a performance that you will remember for the rest of your life once you see it. The interesting plot keeps you stuck to the screen. Nell is a girl, who has been brought up in an isolated world. She never knew anyone except her mother and her twin sister. The remote forests of North Carolina have always been her home. The movie is very beautifully shot, with a lot of fantastic sceneries. Liam Neeson is another powerful point of "Nell". One of the best movies of the 90's. Highly recommended.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great movie Comment: I love the DVD and enjoy relaxing and watching it. sugest it to anyone who's up for a good movie.Nell
