Seriously, hanging at every turn


If you watched this movie you have to admit this movie had no conclusion/answers to many things that are going on in the movie. Its the worst movie I have ever seen E. Shue ever to be in. I think this movie was an attempt to show the side of a female going through postpartum depression to which I am sorry I as a mother of 4, been poor to the point of washing our clothes out by hand in the bath tub, been homeless living in a camp ground, and moved around so much and had no friends other then far away ones , no relatives near by ever and a husband that worked the midnight shift, well I would say if anyone was to get postpartum depression it would have been me. Dont get me wrong I had my moments of some depression but come on really....I feel instead of saying its because of a birth just say it was destined to happen at some point and the birth just triggered it. This movie left us hanging with no explanation at every corner. The girl, the baby doll, her seeing things, the husband just abandoning her constantly like he really didnt care, the old lady, the thing she put under the crib,the diary, None of it came together and made any sense. The writer and director need to get another career.
