    • Trivia
      During filming, Ellen Burstyn saw on the call sheet a long lost relative who was working on the crew.
    • Goofs
      The first incident with the freight train is set about 1950 yet it has no caboose. The caboose was not replaced by an electronic monitor on the last freight car until the eighties. It's also more than likely that in that era in western Canada a freight would have been hauled by steam rather than diesel.
    • Quotes

      Arlene: I want to have a baby.

      John: We're broke.

      Arlene: We love each other. It'll be a love child.

      [they both laugh quietly. meanwhile, Hagar walks silently in and sees what's going on]

      John: Well, my mom leaves town in a couple weeks. Then we can get married, and we can talk about having a baby, okay?

      Arlene: I don't care about a wedding or anything.

      John: You can have whatever you want.

      [it becomes more intense; they are both breathing faster]

      Arlene: [breathlessly] I want lots of babies.

      [then they start having sex and Hagar leaves, having said nothing]

    I was so moved by this picture.
    I was very moved by the story and because I am going through something similar with my own parents, I really connected. It is so easy to forget that someone whose body is failing was once vibrant and passionate. And then there's the mistakes they made and have to live with. I loved Ellen Burstyn's performance and who is Christine Horne? She's fantastic! A real find. There is probably the most erotic scene I've ever seen in a film, yet nothing was shown - it was just so beautifully done. Overall the look and feel of the film was stunning, a real emotional journey. Cole Hauser is very very good in this picture, he humanizes a man spiraling downwards. I liked the way the filmmaker approached this woman's life, never sentimental, never too much - just enough to hook us in, but not enough to bog down.
