With: Janet Mcteer, Kimberly J Brown, Jay O Sanders, Gavin O'Connor
Plot: a cheery white trash mother (McTeer) moves from town to town with her daughter to escape failed relationships
---
Covers familiar ground (It's basically Anywhere But Here with more good will for the mother), but rich performances and an obvious familiarity with the scenario make it very enjoyable viewing. The relationships, especially that of mother and daughter, are well developed and realistic, which makes this slightly too typical slice of life feel somehow fresh and intriguing. McTeer carries the whole film on her shoulders, but the supporting cast are uniformly good, and the chemistry she has with Brown is what gives the film its heart.
