So that's what goes on in her head

That's interesting to me, because I didn't think it was *that* over the top from the standpoint of the actual events. I've witnessed things close enough to some of the events in the film (I grew up in a very small town in rural Ohio which is probably 98.9% white). But even still, I didn't feel like the film made me feel much of anything because the characters seemed so much like shells of people. Maybe that's what would have made it a better film for me--flesh out the individual characters more within these situations. I don't know. I wish I did, because then maybe I'd be a screenwriter. :-)
