Why does K Stew have to stretch her acting in such unpleasant roles?!
17 March 2011
James Gandolfini and Melissa Leo are grieving parents dealing with the death of their teenage daughter and coping or not in different ways. Some of the moments are quite touching. The story is predictable but quite satisfying to watch. The house in New Orleans was kind of gross and a bit unpleasant to watch. Melissa Leo is quite affecting in her role. James is a bit burly to be moving.

For K Stew fans it's worth a watch and a bit of another "The Runaways" but with a bit more endearing character. Don't know why Kristen wants to play all these druggie / hooker roles to show her range. She is quite good but still seems a bit too put together and articulate for the prostitute she is trying to play. Another K Stew branching out vehicle. Hope she does a non basket case role next time - she is a good and pretty young actress and doesn't need to ugly up and use lots of expletives once she is out of Twilight.

Overall if you don't catch this one it doesn't matter but if you are a K Stew fan you would probably want to see it.
