Hearts in Atlantis

Hearts in Atlantis is one of the more popular drama-driven movies penned by Stephen King. As we all know, Stephen is a master of the horror genre, thanks to a gory childhood experience when he witnessed his best friend sucked by a train. But not everybody knows that Stephen King is also a master of drama vehicles like this one. One thing I love in Stephen King movies is that they are all starred by very capable actors. In this instance, it is starred by the legendary Sir Anthony Hopkins. This is actually a coming-of-age movie about a boy who will encounter life’s greatest challenges for the first time with the aid of Anthony Hopkins’s character. It does have a horror connotation to it since the boy will experience sad instances at the ending of the movie. It’s called Hearts in Atlantis for Anthony Hopkins’s character has the delusion that his neighborhood is utopian.
