Small slice-of-life drama that proves a story doesn’t have to be big to make an impact. No elaborate sets, no nail biting tension, no over-acting. It’s all very subtle and the barren and run down north Texas backdrop suits it to a T. Even with his understated and quiet presence, Duvall carries this film on his back the whole way with a little help from Tess Harper as his new wife and Betty Buckley as his ex. Yes, it is a redemption story, but definitely not a dramatic one and promotes realism instead of Hollywood fantasies.
