5/10
I'm confused

I recently moved to a new town and my neighbor invited me to come along to one of her friends house for a ladies movie night. I was under the impression Fox was a simple little film about two spinsters running a farm. Boy was I misled!

First of all, the nude scene after the bath was completely unnecessary. Then the character appears to self pleasure herself. Do we really need to see that?

It is never made clear if the two ladies are dear friends or in a romantic relationship.

Along comes a male drifter who out of the blue tells Ellen he wants to marry her. She seems to resist the idea. Jill gets upset and panicky and tries to hang onto Ellen. Ellen seems to waffle back and forth not knowing what she wants.

Out of the blue Ellen ditches all the flannel and comes downstairs in a peach rayon dress and matching shoes. What? She goes out into the night with the man and later Jill hears them having intimate relations and is crushed.

Then a dead tree falls onto Jill and kills her. The end.

What the hell?
