By all accounts I have ever seen, Agnus was portrayed as a non loving parent. One who treated her son like the golden child and her daughter like garbage. The ending. "I love you karen" then she smiles like her mom and she made up right before she died. All through the movie they made her seem like a bystander that did no damage to her. I would much rather see something real. Not all families are able to resolve problems before a death happens. That's life. Its like they tried to make it a happy ending and it is disgusting.

War Eagle, Arkansas
(2007)
One of the Most Realistic Portrayals of the South

I absolutely love this movie!!!!!!!!!!! It is a perfect display of small town Arkansas life. Its also a touching coming of age story that could (and did) really happen. I cry every time I watch this movie. Happy tears. Anyone from Arkansas should see this movie just to prove that not everyone sees or portrays Arkansas as nothing but hillbillies and hicks. The F-bomb is dropped a couple of times but its not like they swear every other word. Its also not full of "a-list" actors, but they do a terrific job. It also shows how people need each other to overcome adversity. The two main characters are Wheels and Enoch. Wheels has CP but no mental deficiencies and Enoch is the star pitcher for the high school baseball team but has a stuttering problem. Enoch helps wheels with his physical needs and Wheels helps him with his social needs.
