Working from a remarkably insightful screenplay by Peter Hedges and Polly Platt (adapted from the novel by Jane Hamilton), director Elliott presents a genuinely honest film that takes an in-depth look at what it often takes just to `maintain' on a daily basis, and the very real issues and situations that a person like Alice is apt to encounter.

igourney Weaver visited a Kmart and milked a goat in preparation for her role in "A Map of the World." That conscientiousness shows.
