Featured review
I just saw this film at Sundance 2001.
A feel good movie that's honest. The treatment is respectful and moving. The acting is very good, production value is very good. Good casting. It really captures the essence of the struggles of life along the Ohio in the middle of the 20th Century.
I look forward to seeing it again during the theatrical release.
