Sandy Dennis is often very touching, the boy is good in a fey way and there are some nice portraits of Canada's more conventional citizenry. Go to Full Review Anton Bitel Little White Lies 06/20/2016
the psychodrama that emerges shows a woman lost in the cracks between the staid bourgeois respectability of her mother's generation, and the new freedoms of the '60s. Go to Full Review Howard Thompson New York Times 05/09/2005

10/22/2015 I must be the only person who loves this film. Sandy Dennis's monologue on the bed is so powerfully melancholy and fascinating.

Sandy Dennis is the main highlight. It's one of those movies that has to be seen! See more laurent b @RT95576478 03/02/2013 I can't believe the critics on rottentomatoes : this movie is just a masterpiece. Brillantly directed by Bob Altman and played by Sandy Dennis, it's one of the most gripping movie and before it's time movie that i've seen in a long time. Don't miss it ! See more 02/23/2013 If I were to describe this to you, you wouldn't believe me. See more 10/30/2011 A little dull, but neither bad enough nor uncharacteristic enough to explain why this gets practically no recognition as an early Altman film. See more Read all reviews
