I really enjoyed this one.

All the things that can go wrong when you have different cultures, and people fail to communicate.
A series of unfortunate events means that a house if wrongfully sold, and the rightful owner has to fight a lot of red tape whilst struggling with an addiction. She tries to talk to the people that bought the house, but because of the difference in culture, and them all failing to listen and recognise where the other party is coming from, it all comes to a very sad ending...

Great performances from all involved. Not a happy go easy film, but will make you think...

First of all I will do the positive. Great cinematography and a great cast as well.
I thought this film was too long, and I struggled a few times whilst watching it. I am not sure where to comparison with 3:10 to Yuma comes into it. This is a talk movie. There is a lot of dialogue and very little action. Can still be enjoyed for the beautiful filming, but not one to watch when being tired.
