Ada Guthrie: What of it? She's a damn sight safer out there where she hardly sees him than in there within his reach.
Featured review
beautiful movie
I would watch this movie everyday if i could! It is a totally wonderful story! William McNamara, Reese Witherspoon and Patricia Arquette did an excellent job! The love that develops between Sammy and Alice is so beautiful! I only wish that there would be a sequel something to add to this already wonderful movie!
