Nice example of life in a small Arizona community before the influence of so many outsiders. Myself, growing up in a very similar community in southern Arizona was very familiar. They loneliness of being single and with a small pool of others in the same situation reminded me of my Mother ,sister and niece and what it was like for them. In a town of 212 people we often dated the same people,knew what everyone's business was and felt that a lot of relationships were incestuous,not in reality but because we grew up in a brotherly ,sisterly way since early childhood. The very girls I grew up with and thought of as sisters were my future dating partners. Just having someone there is a comfort especially as we get older. I think this explains why some stay in bad relationships,the fear of being alone. This film reminded me of my youth and it didn't matter that these were Hispanic women. I have found that economic ties bind you far more than racial ones. The movie was a little jerky and needed a better sound track but I liked it. I saw what must have been an autobiographical treatment for the director. Well done!
