This is a great film and I enjoyed it but the story should have been a little different.
Chris and Carol relationship just seems odd and not right. I'm not saying because of the major age difference. But in the scenes where Hildy and Chris hang out I can feel the spark. It got me up out of my seats seeing them two hang. Even though she's underage in the film. She was over 18 when the film was shot.
Every time I saw Chris and Carol scenes I got bored. Edie Falco is a beautiful actress but the younger actress Kaitlyn Dever should have ended up being with Chris.
The script could have been better if it was like this:
Chris gets out of prison and loves Carol but Carol don't want to ruin her relationship with her husband. So she leads Chris on. Through all of that Chris is building a romantic relationship with Caol's daughter Hildy. Carol sees that Chris is falling for her daughter. So she becomes jealous and presses charges since Hildy is still underage. Chris gets sent back to jail for violating his parole.
Like why would the director/writer give hints that Hilby likes Chris when the film doesn't bring it up.
