Angelina Jolie's strong-willed performance in Foxfire as Legs, the charismatic outsider based on the rebellious character from Joyce Carol Oates's novel, is a very good reason to see this 1996 drama. The film updates the story from the 1950s to the '90s, but for a while the air of teenage angst and confrontation is closer to the legacy of James Dean than gun-toting/body-piercing disaffection. Bold and larger-than-life, Legs quickly gathers a group of adolescent girls around her, each of whom has been sexually abused and is dealing in her own way with the emotional consequences. As expected, the girls plot out their revenge, but even more interesting is the intensity of their bond and rituals, the way they hang out in an abandoned house, their expressions of devotion. So tight and self-protective does this clique become that onlookers--fellow students, parents--become resentful. The final act loses faith somewhat with the mystique of this story, as a few hoary ideas (kidnapping, firearms) breach the film's originality. But what's good is good indeed, and Jolie's performance remains a harbinger of great things to come. --Tom Keogh

The Bottom Line:
It's got a nice topless scene for the raincoat crowd, but Foxfire fails in terms of character development, plot, and interestingness; enjoyable enough, it's just not a very good or memorable film.

This movie has it all; suspense,excitement,action,girl-power,lesbian overtones and a young sexy Angelina Jolie. I love this film and if you love Angie and empowered women you will too. Amazing, I highly recommend it!

Foxfire is a good story, wonderfully acted about a group of girls who reject being pushed around by the men in their life: one a teacher, one a parent. Margret (Angelina Jolie) is the stranger who wanders into town and befriends Maddy wonderfully played by Hedy Burress. Heddy Burress was a newcomer to movies when she starred in this film and delivered a poignant, thoughtful performance. It's a shame Hedy hasn't played more prominent roles in subsequent films. She does a lot of voice-over work to pay the bills.

The novel of the same name by Joyce Carol Oates on which this movie was based is beautiful, moving, transcendent, heartbreaking, lyrical, and unforgettable.
The movie, on the other hand, felt like the After-School Special version of the book.
Do yourself a favor and read the novel instead.
