"...Rubies" is a well crafted film set in New York City's diamond district and Hassidic enclave and focused on the struggle of one young Jewish woman-wife-mother's struggle to reconcile the strict rigors of Hassidic righteousness with her humanness and free will. This earnest film making effort does a good job of balancing Jewish orthodoxy with the need for freedom from piety and ritual even though the central character (Zellweger) tilts the film toward the latter in her soul-searching quest. The religious esoterics of the subject may narrow the audience/market for this film's plaintive and touching drama.
