Just a short note on this one…

Sometimes a movie seems a bit less than the sum of its parts. This assessment comes from someone with a well-documented predilection for little pictures, intimate dramas, the slice of life aesthetic, all of which–arguably–this picture has.

Always a fan of Sissy Spacek and Casey Affleck and mostly a fan of Robert Redford (especially after the cragginess mitigated his early prettiness), I wanted more depth, something to make me know these characters better and to care more about them.
