Exploring TV celebrity and small-town poverty, it is based on the 1992 novel by Joyce Maynard. The entire cast is excellent.
Even with so many great moments of absurdist slap-stick silliness, it never devolves into mere farce.
Such a smart little movie. As clever as it is, the meta-conceits of the film are handled with such subtlety that it never becomes a mere formal experiment.
