Peter A I have just watched this film & thought it was excellent. Well written, well acted, I enjoyed every minute & it left me feeling good. Has a "Soldier Blue" early 70's vibe about it where the power of love and optimism shine through the darkness. Monte Markham is a middle aged guy who is on course for a boozy and probably depressing New Year's Eve with his pal until Sissy Spacek breezes into his life. She lights up the screen with her vitality & honesty, sometimes naïve, sometimes profound. Her songs enhance the film with their simplicity & purity. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/22/24 Full Review nick s Well acted by the leads. I found it a little boring waiting for something to happen. It sometimes felt that what you were watching was of little consequence. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Endearing story of two different spirited souls finding each other. The scenes between Monte Markham and Sissy Spacek are the strongest, when they are not together on screen there is less interest. Slim Pickens only has a small part which is a shame as he usually adds plenty of character to any film. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked this one a lot. Nice little story, and I was impressed with both Sissy Spacek's acting, what a likeable character!, in it and that she wrote and sung all the songs in the movie. Anyone who likes 70's movies or even stories about socially awkward people getting together should enjoy this one. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Bad script salvaged to some degree by an extremely low budget, early 70s style, and of course the lovely Miss Spacek. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
