Is everything
I really wanted to like this more than I did. A really well done flick, and Frances is fantastic of course, but it left me kind of flat.

Yeah, I thought I'd like this much more than I did, as someone who's had a trailer/rv for the last 12 years. Solid film, just much darker than I was expecting.
