I was familiar with the brilliant play that inspired the film and was blown away with the adaptation. Four sisters grappling with the personal disappointments, their fraught relationship with their mother and each other, and with their mother's death. The actors are riveting, the entire experience gripping. Set on a lake, the story unfolds in a kind of "No Exit," environment, where the sisters are forced to remain as the uncomfortable hours click by, forced to face issues none wishes to face. The addition of more back story and appearance of some men in the women's lives adds wonderful dimension as well, each one played pitch perfect for their role. Fun bonus to see the stunning beauty that Cindy Crawford's daughter has grown to be, especially since she demonstrated wonderful acting chops. Another actor to watch, along with the rest of the superb and relatively new to seasoned cast. Highly recommend.
