Karen Black gives an astonishing performance as the shut in southern woman who carries the memories of the past into her imaginative present tense, struggling to stop things from changing, she represents the south itself, mystery, color, imagination, history and intense love of family, tradition and a pride that can only be southern. A beautifully shot love letter to Mississippi , almost like a lyric painting of the American South.
