- TriviaOf her role as Joleen, Charlize Theron said, "I have to say that I really like the idea of playing somebody who was a flawed mother. She's an uncomfortable character, yet to me, very real. There are women out there who are just not good mothers, and Jolene is one of them."

Featured review
If you peer honestly at this film, it depicts familial dysfunction, and the havoc it engenders in children; they are the innocent creatures that are damaged irrevocably. They say all you need is one person while you are raised who attunes to you lovingly and with empathy; thats all it takes. When you are abused at an early age, you will lack individuation and psychosocial integration. Perchance if you have children, whether you want to or not, you will pass this information on, that is stored in every cell of your body. Braking the generational abusive cycle requires more than knowledge it requires healing. Nick Stahl is a great actor, who gets better with age, using little to say so much. The child actor is decent too.
