 | This is, of course, only my opinion. This movie would have been a great opportunity for a new actress to debut. I could not believe "Sally Fields" in this role. Her past films affected me while watching this movie. A new actress might have been willing to put more realism into the character than a well known actress, afraid to show any skin. This is a prostitute. To be a good film requires enough realism to convince us. Other recent movies have fallen short of greatness because of this same short coming, lack of realistic portrayal of the character, thus the two stars. |
