Yes! This movie felt to me like one of the great tragedies. Technically it isn't a tragedy, but I had that sense of catharsis I get after watching a wonderful classical tragedy--wrung out and peaceful. This seemed to me such a "real" movie. The characters didn't seem to be acting. We just eavesdropped on their lives. I love Lassa Halstrom films. And Leonard and Johnny were terrific in this. As was everybody actually.
