Sandra, Bill and Alice emerge not as a newfound family exactly, nor as villains and victims, but as three ever-vulnerable human beings doing the best they can to survive.

Top CriticA modest but pungent slice of interstate life.
12/19/03
A fine merging of means, material and ego -- a nicely acted, simple little road movie vacuumed free of any indie scene smugness or self-satisfaction.
01/09/04
What we found is a bleak, but interesting look into a world where the line is blurred between good people and bad. Judith Ivey's performance is the real jewel of the film.
05/28/04
Candidly unsentimental yet utterly human.
04/09/04
The whole thing smacks resoundingly of student film, from the youthful protagonist to the road-y premise to the jejune fascination with trailer culture.
12/16/03
The screenplay by director Bell is packed with surprises, and the acting is excellent.
12/04/03
This amateur film looks more like a TV show than a movie.
03/20/05
There's something fresh and honest here.
01/01/04
It neither glamorizes nor demonizes truck-stop whoredom; it merely depicts it, with little of the internal strife that ought to accompany it.
04/05/04
Features a compelling performance by Judith Ivey.
09/24/03
An almost constantly surprising coming-of-age film with a dark twist that manages to take the high road with what is well-exploited material.
05/20/04
Top CriticIt so deftly tweaks your presumptions at every turn that you feel, by the end, that you've traveled somewhere -- and not just along several southbound interstates.

04/12/04
A fine debut performance from Emily Grace in a new spin on the road-and-buddy genre.
11/04/03
The movie looks like TV from beginning to end, and accentuates the other major compromise of its meager budget.
12/05/03
Top CriticThe film's somewhat light-hearted tone is wholly inappropriate in what is, in essence, a story of sexual predators.
03/19/04
This digitally-shot feature never seems aware of its subjects.
