Desert Bloom Ratings & Reviews
Boston Globe
Jay Carr
Annabeth Gish is a small atomic bomb herself when she finally releases a smile, and Jon Voight has his best role in years.
Miami Herald
Bill Cosford
Forced as it sometimes seems, and inconsequential by turns, Desert Bloom is a handsome movie, and it's beautifully detailed.
Robin Holabird
Robin Holabird
A strong cast led by Jon Voight backs Gish in a story that pulls a great deal of its elements from its distinctive Nevada setting...
Sojourner
Kathi Maio
I don't know whether it is this marketplace reality, or a general lack of human understanding, that made so beautiful a film as Desert Bloom into such an ultimately disappointing experience.

Emanuel Levy
This sensitive coming-of-age tale is framed by the narration of its grown-up protagonist, recalling her childhood in the 1950s, an era defined by the A-Bomb and the culture it created.

Steve Crum
Memorable little story carried by Jon Voight.
Kalamazoo Gazette
James Sanford
a drama that stays with you; a good companion piece with "Blue Sky"
Spirituality & Practice
Mary Ann Brussat
Manages to make clear that certain children possess the resiliency to handle the stress and pain of a troubled home.
Washington Post
Paul Attanasio
Now, it's fine for a movie to be earnest, and Julio Gallo, for that matter, but it does make "Desert Bloom" rather a slog.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Desert Bloom contains the material for a very good film and it certainly contains the performances, but it moves in too many directions and contains too many issues.
