It would take only an emotional bond as this one depicted in the film that could make this a film at all.
The premise is good that a young woman, with 2 failed marriages and a tendency to land into trouble, bonds with her daughter as the two flee for 9 years.
It is only the love that the girl had for her wayward mother, this would allow her to stay with her bad mother. When the girl got older, she could have left but she didn't.
The picture begins to go awry when the mother, Joely Richardson, marries an attorney. When their marriage goes southward, she kills him. It appeared that the guy had 9 lives by the way that at the beginning she can't kill him, no matter what she does. This really became silly. The ending is not, but you probably knew that this was coming.
