As a cynical widow who embroils her two daughters in the web of bitterness she&#8217;s created for herself, Woodward&#8217;s character is far from likable, but eminently &#8220;real&#8221;; she&#8217;s surviving in the only way she knows how. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward3.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward3-1024x519.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"324\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-63995\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward3-1024x519.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward3-300x152.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward3-128x65.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward3-768x389.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward3-1536x779.png 1536w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward3-533x270.png 533w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward3.png 1801w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Both Wallach (daughter of Eli Wallach and Anne Jackson) and Potts (daughter of Newman and Woodward) are excellent and believable as well in their respective roles as Woodward&#8217;s radically different daughters. While the film&#8217;s odd title is puzzling at first, playwright Zindel&#8217;s metaphors are soon made apparent, as we realize that Matilda&#8217;s interest in the effect of noxious rays on living plants closely parallels her quest for self-preservation in the face of an impossibly dysfunctional mother. No easy answers are provided, but a small amount of movement and change occurs by the end of the film, thus leaving viewers with hope for the future. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Joanne Woodward as Beatrice Hunsdorfer<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward2-1024x547.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"342\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-63991\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward2-1024x547.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward2-300x160.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward2-128x68.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward2-768x410.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward2-1536x820.png 1536w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward2-506x270.png 506w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Woodward2.png 1729w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Nell Potts as Matilda<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Potts.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Potts-1024x544.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"340\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-63992\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Potts-1024x544.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Potts-300x159.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Potts-128x68.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Potts-768x408.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Potts-1536x815.png 1536w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Potts-509x270.png 509w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Potts.png 1735w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Roberta Wallach as Ruth<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Wallach2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Wallach2-1024x550.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"344\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-63993\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Wallach2-1024x550.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Wallach2-300x161.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Wallach2-128x69.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Wallach2-768x412.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Wallach2-1536x824.png 1536w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Wallach2-503x270.png 503w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/Effect-of-Gamma-Rays-Wallach2.png 1727w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See? <\/strong><br \/>\nNo, but it&#8217;s recommended. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Links: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/imdb.com\/title\/tt0068528\/\">IMDb entry<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/1972\/12\/21\/archives\/for-gamma-rays-another-opening.html\">NY Times Original Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rogerebert.com\/reviews\/the-effect-of-gamma-rays-on-man-in-the-moon-marigolds-1973\">Roger Ebert&#8217;s Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tvguide.com\/movies\/effect-gamma-rays\/review\/113801\">TV Guide Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.timeout.com\/movies\/the-effect-of-gamma-rays-on-man-in-the-moon-marigolds\">Time Out Capsule Review<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;My experiment has shown some of the strange effects radiation can produce, and how dangerous it can be if not handled correctly.&#8221; Synopsis: A harried single mother (Joanne Woodward) struggles to raise her two daughters: boy-crazy, baton-twirling Ruth (Roberta Wallach) and quiet, science-loving Matilda (Nell Potts).
