Very good film in which Sally Fields portrays Edna, a character whose life turns upside down one evening. From one day to the next, she goes from being housewife to head of household. She is hounded by the bank, victimized, and even manipulated into taking in a boarder.
***POSSIBLE MINOR SPOILER*** This woman, though, is very courageous, and even uses for survival purposes the man who intended to victimize her and skip town. She is also kind and loving, coming to care for the would-be thief and pedantic boarder as if they were part of her family. They come to care for her, too, and all work together to ensure a better future, with mixed results.
Places in the Heart is about the place those whom you have loved and cared about in your life inhabit; a place very deep within your being. No one ever completely disappears from your life even though they be dead since they will always live on in your heart.
