This movie didn't go a single step to cater to the action and twist driven drama that is the usual fare for the simple minded audience. Instead it tells a heartfelt story that feels profoundly real. The primary characters have deep friendships that can survive telling each other hard truths that need telling. When I realized where it was NOT going it gripped me even more firmly. I loved this film, cried twice, and adore Holly Hunter as much now as I did my first time seeing her in Raising Arizona. She is 6 weeks older than me and still makes my heart beat fast, dangerous at my age. This is a real drama that will survive over time and someday be a classic.
