Three or Four Stars?

TV Guide gives this movie three stars. I think that's nuts. I say this is a great movie, four stars all the way. Anyone agree with me?

Yes! Excellent movie. I love Sidney and Shelly. If I could I'd give it five stars.

Definitly a 4 star movie. Touching story, great performances.

I'd agree with 4 stars. Winters must of been quite an excellent actress and Hartman's role was simply awesome. Ford's own act was pretty good too.

I'm even an action-western-war type of guy and this is like my second favorite movie of all time. Such a wonderful story, really felt all of the emotion (Loved the thunderstorm scene with Poiter).

5 Stars.

A PATCH OF BLUE would get four stars from me. Not because it's perfect (very, very few things are, including films) -- but because of its power, its delicacy, and its beauty.

Most great films deserve a more appreciative audience than they get.

I always see it listed as 3-1/2.
