    Rented this just because it was a movie based on a book from Oprahs book club. Just was not what I thought it should be...

    It's a shame that two fine actors such as Spacek and Bridges are part of this film. The plot is dull, and the movie's credibility is seriously compromised by a gratuitous tangent in which Spacek's character's daughter falls victim to the sexual advances of a young, attractive local Catholic priest. This story has no bearing on the outcome of the movie, and seems to have been added by the screenwriter merely as an opportunity to grind an ax with the Catholic Church. At best, this movie represents an hour-and-a-half of my life that I wish I could have back.
