Goofs:

Errors in geography: A stretch of highway with a large distinctive rock formation in the background is seen right before the scene in which Arvilla gives her friends their sunglasses and scarves. Much later in the film, when they are supposedly in another state, the same stretch of road with the unique rock formation (also same trees, etc.) is seen again.

Quotes:

Carol: I can't leave Arlo alone that long!
Margene: Well how would you know? You haven't left his side since highschool.
Carol: I have so!
Margene: Trips to the ladies' room don't count.

Supply and Demand

Bonneville takes you on a wonderful, emotional journey.

Bonneville allows you to step away from all the "I have to" things going on in your personal and professional life and takes you on a wonderful, emotional journey, where you share the cross country experiences of Jessica Lange, Kathy Bates, and Joan Allen. It's a "feel good" movie, with great actors, a story to tell, and outstanding scenery. It's an adventure that everyone can enjoy, whether young or old or male or female. It's also a movie that permits you to imagine how you would handle personal conflicts associated with making the right decisions in life, and then dealing with the consequences, either good or bad. I highly recommend Bonneville and know you'll walk away with a smile on your face and more at peace with the world around you.
