    Its alright. I love the setting and that it is based on a true story. I also love the part where she begins to realize that the place in which she escaped to write about something entirely different actually became the place in itself far richer to write about.

    Can't argue with a true story. As a would be writer myself, I found it Interesting.

    Beautiful movie and the scene with Rip Torn charging through the woods on his horse is a sight to behold.
