The drama created by a tiny set, two world class actresses and a genius script is amazing in its simplicity. Though terribly dark, it is nevertheless moving in its humanity and occasionally even funny.
It immediately made me think of the old quote "most men(women)lead lives of quiet desperation".
I found the dialog, and its delivery just perfect in its realism. The rural mid-western setting, the mother and daughter monotonous routine all made this profoundly understandable.
There may not be two other actresses who could have pulled this off as well as these two ladies.
