The Attic Movie Director Jeffrey Bloom


The Attic Movie named Flowers in the Attic is a movie that is depicted from a Novel by the same name. The Novel was written in 1979 and the movie was released in 1987. It was Directed by Jeffrey Bloom, Produced by Sy Levin & thomas Fries, Written by Jeffrey Bloom, Narrated by Clare Peck.

The Attic Movie starred the likes of Louise Fletcher, Victoria Tennant, Kristy Swanson, Jeb Stuart Adams. Its music was by Christopher Young, Cinematography by Gil Hubbs. The movie was released on 20 November 1987 in English. The running time of the movie is 93 minutes.

The Attic movie was a flop and was highly criticized by the people and even by the critics. It was quoted as slow, stiff, stupid and senseless. It was even criticized for deviating too much from the main Novel. The plot was about four children Chris, Cathy, Cory and Carrie who move up with their mother Corinne to live with her wealthy parents after their fathers death. Later in the movie the grandfather dies and the cruel behavior of the grandmother is reflected.

The grandfather was not aware that the marriage of his daughter has produced four children and Corinne was only interested in getting the inheritance for which the four children were put into the Mansions Attic. Further The Attic movie shows that the mother slowly looses concern for her four children and lives a wealthy life and fixes a deal with the lawyer for how to start afresh and how to get off with these four children.

The Attic Movie becomes tragic with the death of little Cory. It was the result of slow poisoning of arsenic given by the grandmother who was encouraged to do so by Corinne. The kids spirit breaks down and they somehow sneaked out of the Attic and reach the place where their mother was getting married. They take their revenge by killing their mother before they leave forever.

Anyhow The Attic Movie was in great contrast with the Novel, some of the important points of contrast were like Chris and Cathy have been said to be teenagers in this movie but in the Novel they are portrayed much elder. The children were held back in the Attic for one year in the movie but in the Novel it was three years. The movie showed no sexual tension between Chris and Cathy while the Novel puts emphasis on it.

The mother does not die in the Novel whereas in the movie she dies. In the Novel it is said that before the kids left the Attic they took valuable things from the home but the movie does not show that. Apart from these points there are many other points of difference between the movie and the Novel that led to the downfall of the movie. But The Attic Movie won the Young Artist Award in 1989 and was also nominated for the Saturn Award in 1988. Flowers in the Attic
