    This is an ok movie for a first and only time wtaching type deal. Ashly Judd plays a good role. Her Character you could tell has a real bad self esteem issue and you can see it has a lot to do with her father. Not something I will probably see again but not to terrible.

    This is definitely a great treat. An actual film directed by Joey Lauren Adams.

    This is definitely something new for fans of Ashley Judd, and it's great seeing her branching out in the selection of movie roles.

    There's something captivating about Ashley Judd. Her performances are deep, easily engaging you to care about her character. This time Judd plays a Southern woman looking to turn her life around to walk the straight and narrow. It's good.

    Low budget/indipendent movie.
    Ashley Judd is really good with her acting in this film. I didn't really care for the movie in the beginiing, but it was pretty good. Would of liked to see more of Laura Prepon

    A low-key movie that really showcases Ashley Judds' acting. Not a lot of action but wonderful character development. About a person's journey to lay down the burden of her family's dysfunctions and discover fulfillment in life. So much of what happens takes place within the protagonist and it is wonderfully conveyed by Judd's body and facial expressions, and tone of voice. For instance, her face beautifully displays the shyness of her character when she has sex sober for the first time in her life. Set in Arkansas, the story is held together by a fondness for its non-urban locale and a genuine attempt to capture the people who live there.

    Well i expected a lot more of this movie, was really depressing and slow, bad directed and bad acting.

    I don't know where to begin with this film... the take on love was, while realistic, overly pessimistic. It had too strong of a small-town flavor for my taste, though it was done well.

    I think it was a fantastic performance delivered by Judd! The movie is an inspiration for women - especially those who want to be independent. The script has an equal mixture of independence and destructive characteristics that also accompany being single and independent. It is a movie that should be watched by all women!

    Some good lessons about learning to overcome your past and that you have to love yourself before you'll let anyone else love you. I had hoped for a more resolved ending, but it was still good because it leaves you feeling that she's letting go of the past and is working on a better future. Also you can imagine things may still work out for them.

    An hour and a half of Ashley Judd in tight jeans....Wow! I think there was a story and some dialogue in it too, but I can't really remember.

    This movie was excellent! Ashley Judd played her role perfectly. If you or someone you know has a destructive dating pattern that involves one-night stands, then watch this and learn something from an outside perspective.

    This movie is worth watching for Ashley's performance only. Though as a story is was a deep one I think the director failed to deliver it. Some scenes came across to me as flat.

    This is a movie that is difficult to watch just because she keeps making the same mistakes of her past and her father's past. She can't accept happiness in her life and ruins the one man who might actually be good for her. Worth a look.

    great movie; ashley jodd does a fantastic job; a great directorial debut from joey lauren adams ("chasing amy"); the plot is not neatly wrapped up at the end, i really liked that. there was some confusion over who was who in her family, but it was a minor distraction. it also has the cute chick from "that 70s show" as her roommate.

    A solid drama with Ashley Judd giving a standout performance. It will remind you of her other film Ruby in Paradise. In this one, she plays Lucy, a woman who drinks too much and sleeps with a lot of different guys. She also has family issues to deal with including her dad who doesn't want to see her. A really good and emotional film with an effective directing debut by actress Joey Lauren Adams. Don't pass on this one.

    Impressive performance by Judd, this was a quiet little flick, but it emoted really well. I liked it, if anything for just the scene where shes with whatshisname, and she is sober for the first time. I just felt her struggle. Well done!
