REVIEW
This is a modest low-budget film that will appeal to adult audiences. Several things set this apart from other movies about regular people caught up in life’s circumstances:
1. The acting by Williams is so natural and down-to-earth and her appearance is completely in character.
2. Although unhurried the slow pacing fits the situation and needs not go any faster.
3. There is no soundtrack to evoke our emotions, relying instead on the story itself which is straight forward and uncomplicated.
